UFC veteran Rafael Dos Anjos has called out Conor McGregor for a fight. Rafael feels that the timing is right for a bout against ‘The Notorious’ due to the history they share.

Dos Anjos was set to defend his title against McGregor in 2016. However, he had to pull out of the fight, due to a foot injury. With Rafael Dos Anjos itching to get back in the octagon, he feels a fight against Conor makes perfect sense.

“The whole history. I was the lightweight champion, he was coming up to challenge me and also, I got a lot of fights. That was the only one that I didn’t make it.

“That’s what I would like to have on my record, a fight with Conor. That’s why I Tweeted out, ‘No more ifs.’ You see a lot of people say, ‘If that fight would’ve happened; If RDA won, If Conor won, what would’ve happened with Conor? If Conor had lost what would’ve happened?’ A lot of ifs.

“So it’s time to just put that thing on the table and let’s go. Let’s make this fight happen at any weight,” said Dos Anjos to MMA Junkie

Conor made a stellar comeback in January, knocking out Donald Cerrone in the very first round. McGregor revealed his plans on competing regularly, but those plans seem to have halted.

‘The Notorious’ announced his retirement for 3rd time in 4 years and has openly criticized the UFC.

“I don’t believe he’s retiring right now. That’s his third time retiring. I’m not buying that. I don’t think nobody is buying that. He’s too young and I believe he still has a lot in him. I don’t think he’s retiring right now,” said Rafael.

It’s unlikely Conor is retiring any time soon. However, with no fights signed so far, the fans are itching to see if the two will face off in the octagon anytime soon.
