UFC lightweight contenders Rafael dos Anjos and Rafael Fiziev are set to collide at a UFC Fight Night event on February 19 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The Instagram page Full Violence was the first to report the news of the matchup, with the promotion officially confirming it themselves soon after. A former UFC lightweight champion, dos Anjos is 2-2 in his last four Octagon appearances and is coming off of a split-decision victory over Paul Felder at UFC Vegas 14 back in November 2020. Fiziev on the other hand is riding a five-fight winning streak currently and will try to build on a third-round knockout victory over Brad Riddell at UFC Vegas 44 in his most recent outing.
