Rafael dos Anjos calls out Conor McGregor, slams Nate Diaz: ‘F-ck this retirement sh-t’

Rafael dos Anjos has just one fight left on his UFC contract, and the former UFC lightweight champion is looking for the biggest, baddest fight available.

Dos Anjos called out none other than Conor McGregor on Twitter earlier this week, urging The Irishman to come out of retirement for a fight he won’t forget.

“Let’s do it @TheNotoriousMMA if you’re looking for a fight I’m the guy. 155,165 or 170 you know I’m always game. Fuck this retirement shit,” Dos Anjos tweeted on Friday.

Dos Anjos was originally scheduled to face McGregor in a lightweight title bout back in 2016, but the Brazilian was forced out of the bout after breaking his foot in training.

Nate Diaz stepped in as a short-notice replacement and went on to submit McGregor at UFC 196, handing McGregor his first loss inside the Octagon.

The win catapulted Diaz into stardom but dos Anjos says the Stockton slugger was lucky to capitalize on his misfortune.

“And @NateDiaz209 stop bragging of how much money you make, don’t forget where you came from. You got big money fight because I got hurt,” dos Anjos said in response to Diaz’ post about earning more money than UFC 251 headliners Kamaru Usman and Gilbert Burns.

Usman vs. Burns will headline UFC 251, which is expected to take place next month, July 11 at UFC Fight Island in Abu Dhabi.
