Could it be the end of Conor McGregor’s unbeaten streak? His UFC 196 opponent Rafael dos Anjos is looking like the terminator in this new training footage…
It’s crazy to think that Conor MGregor’s lightweight title fight with Rafael dos Anjos is only a month away. UFC 196 will go down on March 5th, with two massive title fights to offer fans. Women’s bantamweight queen Holly Holm will look to defend her title against Miesha Tate on the same night.
As usual with any event featuring McGregor, the trash talk has been very heated. ‘The Notorious’ even accused dos Anjos of betraying his home country of Brazil, and said he would behead the lightweight boss.

All this seems to have motivated dos Anjos to levels we’ve not seen before, and this brand new training footage shows him in beast mode. Check it out:
