Rafael dos Anjos is not too fond of the UFC’s upcoming title bout at 155 pounds. The former lightweight champion would’ve like to seen titleholder Islam Makhachev defend the belt against a contender in the weight class, not featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski. Makhachev and Volkanovski clash in the UFC 284 main event Feb. 11 in Perth, Australia. Dos Anjos (32-14 MMA, 21-12 UFC) is picking Makhachev to beat Volkanovski and retain his title. “I think Islam will win that fight,” dos Anjos said at the UFC on ESPN 42 post-fight news conference ( via MMA Fighting )
