Former UFC lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos put on a dominant performance in his catchweight bout with Renato Moicano on Saturday at UFC 272. RDA was consistent in his attacks in the first four rounds, but he noticeably slowed down a bit in the fifth and final round.
Dos Anjos appeared on The MMA Hour on Monday to discuss his performance. He did admit to relenting in his onslaught, resulting in him absorbing some damage.
“In that 30 seconds of the fight, I got caught on my eye,” dos Anjos told Ariel Helwani.
