Former UFC lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos recently revealed two possible scenarios that could see him make a comeback to the lightweight division. Dos Anjos stated that he would consider moving back to the lightweight division if he were offered a fight against a top-ranked opponent, or if he was given the opportunity to fight for the title.
Following his recent tweet, Rafael dos Anjos has expressed interest in making a comeback to the lightweight division, but only under certain conditions. The Brazilian veteran made it clear that the only two scenarios that excite him enough to return to the division would be a title fight against the current lightweight champion, Islam Makhachev, or a dream fight against the former two-division champion, Conor McGregor. 'RDA' remarked:
"I want to be very clear about possibilities of me fighting at 155. There’s only scenario that I would go back to 155. 1: fight for the title (Islam) 2:Fight Conor. Other than that don’t even waste your time calling me out or tagging me."
