Rafael Dos Anjos vows: I’ll be back stronger than ever!

The UFC have released a promo video a week out from UFC Fight Night 98, which takes place in Mexico City, where former UFC lightweight champion Rafael Dos Anjos will look to get back on track as he takes on Tony Ferguson, a man currently on an impressive 8-0 undefeated streak.

In the promo Rafael Dos Anjos (RDA) expressed his disappointment at losing the title to Eddie Alvarez, who will be defending that belt for the first time against Conor McGregor at UFC 205, and how he'll return to the octagon stronger than ever...

"In my last fight I lost a battle. That was a bitter pill to swallow, but I'm building myself back and I'll be back stronger than ever," he said.

Talking about his opponent, RDA added,

"He's a very slick fighter. He takes a lot of risks. He's coming to fight and he's a dangerous guy. He's got a solid ground game. He's a very unconventional fighter, he throws spinning back elbows, knees, he's going to come wide open and I think he has no idea what he's in for.

RDA then talked about his intentions for the fight, saying:

"One punch can change the whole thing. The key will be my attitude. I want to make a statement, I want to go out there and show the world that I am the true champion. I know it's going to be a war, but I know I'm going to walk out of that octagon with a win.

UFC Fight Night 98 will take place in Mexico City on November 5th.
