VIDEO: New UFC promo for Conor McGregor v Rafael dos Anjos oozes epicness

Can't come soon enough

JOE

If you find yourself oozing epicness, please consult your GP.

The UFC may not be going for the champion v champion angle to promote the main event of UFC 196, but who the hell cares?

We have a legitimate superfight to look forward to on March 5, as Conor McGregor tries to make history by becoming the first fighter to hold two belts in the promotion simultaneously.

Standing in his way is the uber-aggressive Rafael dos Anjos has already comprehensively beaten the likes of Benson Henderson, Donald Cerrone and Khabib Nurmagomedov Anthony Pettis, and now he looks to give the Notorious the sort of welcome to the UFC’s most populated division that puts him off ever fighting there again.

Sounds like a scintillating match-up, one that could probably promote itself, right? Well, that hasn’t stopped the UFC from producing this new promo that is sure to reignite the hype for the highly anticipated  card.

Excited yet? And that’s without mentioning Holly Holm’s first defence against Miesha Tate featuring in the co-main event.

What a time to be alive.
