Rafael dos Anjos thinks he’s being left out of the lightweight contention conversation. At 36, the former UFC lightweight champion vows he still has a lot of fight left in him. After a successful stint at welterweight that included challenging for the interim title, dos Anjos (31-13 MMA, 19-11 UFC) has moved back down to his original weight class. He was able to snap a two-fight losing skid with a “Fight of the Night” effort over Paul Felder in November and thinks people forget the kind of resume he’s stacked up over the years, which includes dethroning Anthony Pettis for the lightweight belt and making quick work of a prime Donald Cerrone to defend his title.
