It appears Rafael dos Anjos is no longer looking to contend for a UFC title. The 37-year-old former lightweight champion is not done fighting, but wants to compete against fellow veterans of the sport rather than opponents in the hunt for the UFC title. According to a social media post on Thursday, dos Anjos (31-14 MMA, 20-12 UFC) still wants a challenge, but against someone that will inspire him to train hard. “I had my last title run…and now it is time to fight people that motivates me to wake up and train,” Dos Anjos wrote on Twitter . “I have almost eight hours of octagon time…get me a veteran for a change! I would love to fight guys like Jim Miller, Jorge Masvidal, or get my rematch with Tony Ferguson or (Clay) Guida.” I had my last title run…and now it is time to fight people that motivates me to wake up and train.
