With his massive win at UFC on Fox 26, Rafael dos Anjos rocketed to 3-0 in the perilous UFC welterweight division, having defeated Tarec Saffiedine, Neil Magny and now, Lawler since heading north from the lightweight division. He’s now 28-9 overall, and could well be the next challenger for UFC welterweight champ Tyron Woodley – though Colby Covington seems to have other ideas.
Lawler, meanwhile is now 28-12 overall. He returns to the loss column after a close July win over Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone.
