In his first fight in a new division, Rafael dos Anjos appeared to be the fresher fighter, and without getting overpowered by longtime welterweight Tarec Saffiedine . That paid off down the stretch as dos Anjos (26-9 MMA, 15-7 UFC) wore Saffiedine (16-7 MMA, 2-4 UFC) down with body shots and constant pressure, riding to a clear unanimous decision victory in the process. The welterweight bout opened up the main card of today’s UFC Fight Night 111 event at Singapore Indoor Stadium in Singapore.
