Being sidelined with a broken foot hasn't stopped Rafael Dos Anjos from having his say on next week's UFC 196 main event between Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz. The fight Dos Anjos was supposed to be defending his Lightweight title in against 'Notorious'.
During the press conference for the March 5th bout, Dos Anjos took to Twitter to blast McGregor for opting against a fight with #2 ranked lightweight Donald Cerrone and instead agreeing to fight #5 ranked Nate Diaz at welterweight.
Ultimate Fighter 5 winner Diaz has lost three of his last five fights and only took part in one bout last year, whereas Cerrone fought four times in 2015, winning three and losing one (to Dos Anjos). His most recent fight was just three nights ago, where he tapped out Alex Oliveira in the first round.

In response to McGregor taking on Diaz, Dos Anjos had this to say:
Will the Brazilian be made to eat his words when he and the Irishman finally do clash once his broken foot has healed?
