Rafael Fiziev earned a well-deserved victory over Rafael dos Anjos at UFC Vegas 58.
Dos Anjos was initially scheduled to compete against Fiziev in February, then March but the fight had to be pushed back after “Ataman” had to withdraw from an injury.

Dos Anjos’ bout with Fiziev served as the main event of the night. “RDA” was going strong in a close-fought contest.
