Whoa. They’re trading.

Is it me or does DosAnjos look like frankenstien?

— Mike Brown (@mikebrownmma) March 15, 2015

Wow. Dos Anjos bringing the murder.

— Jeremy Botter (@jeremybotter) March 15, 2015

Can't give Pettis any space or hel finish it anytime.

— STORMIN NORMAN PARKE (@norman_parke) March 15, 2015

Well, damn. Dos Anjos is here to make all of us look like dummies in round one, apparently. No fear of MMA's premiere sniper so far.

— Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) March 15, 2015

This is a fucking fire fight

— ike vallie-flagg (@IKEVF) March 15, 2015

RDA with some serious pressure. Pettis does best when he has longer range to work.

— Brandon Gibson (@SixGunGibson) March 15, 2015

Dos Anjos is outstanding so far. Wow

— Kevin Iole (@KevinI) March 15, 2015

Both these dudes can take a shot

— Nick Newell (@NotoriousNewell) March 15, 2015

No joke of a first round. 10-9 RDA. MORE OF THAT PLEASE.

— Josh Gross (@yay_yee) March 15, 2015

Rd 1 to RDA. Looks very sharp

— Cody Bollinger (@CodyBollinger) March 15, 2015

Rafael dos Anjos takes round one over the champion Anthony Petits, 10-9. RDA sharp as a razor blade so far. He's got Pettis' attention now!

— Brett Okamoto (@bokamotoESPN) March 15, 2015

Pettis looks in shock in the corner

— Fight_Ghost (@Fight_Ghost) March 15, 2015

Awesome main event fight so far !! ___ grande luta até então #UFC185

— Raphael Assuncao (@RaphaAssuncao) March 15, 2015

Wow RDA is looking strong!!!! It's not looking too good for Pettis. Maybe he's trying the rope a dope tactic? #UFC185

— #OnAmission4Gold (@KelvinGastelum) March 15, 2015

Anthony Pettis just got his ass kicked for ten minutes. Can't believe that's a thing. 20-18 Rafael dos Anjos.

— RJ Clifford (@RJcliffordMMA) March 15, 2015

2rds dos anjos!

— STORMIN NORMAN PARKE (@norman_parke) March 15, 2015

Big rd 2 for dos Anjos. Damage showing on Pettis. Effective GNP 2-0 #ufc185

— Sarah Kaufman (@mmasarah) March 15, 2015

Yeah, did not expect this. Pettis is getting smashed. Arguable 10-8.

— caposa (@GrabakaHitman) March 15, 2015

RDA has shown elements of his greatness in pieces, separated by fights. This might be the first time we see it as a whole, all in one fight.

— Luke Thomas (@SBNLukeThomas) March 15, 2015

Okay Pettis, time to bring out the helicopter kick. #UFC185

— Spilled Bag of Ice (@spilledbagofice) March 15, 2015

Did not expect a one sided beating

— Mitch Gagnon (@MitchGagnonUFC) March 15, 2015

Another strong rd for dos Anjos. Cage control on point then getting in for the takedowns 3-0 #ufc185

— Sarah Kaufman (@mmasarah) March 15, 2015

Can I get a refund on my box of Wheaties?

— Cathal Pendred (@PendredMMA) March 15, 2015

Clay Guida finished the soon-to-be new UFC lightweight champion.

— Mookie Alexander (@mookiealexander) March 15, 2015

I am now convinced that Khabib Nurmagomedov and his father figured out film study/fighter analysis to an unprecedented degree.

— Ben (@DefGrappler) March 15, 2015

RDA controlling every position. 40-36

— Brandon Gibson (@SixGunGibson) March 15, 2015

Four rounds in to a UFC lightweight title fight, Anthony Pettis hasn't won a single one. Rafael dos Anjos five minutes away from the upset.

— Brett Okamoto (@bokamotoESPN) March 15, 2015

No doubt Pettis going to need a KO or submission.

— RobFont (@RobSFont) March 15, 2015

Dos anjos hasn't even started breathing heavy. Looks like lance Armstrong charging up a mountain with a yellow jersey. #UFC185

— Justin Buchholz (@JustinBuchholz) March 15, 2015

RDA is physically much stronger than Pettis, shows in these takedwns and in power, amazing pace too

— Brian Stann (@BrianStann) March 15, 2015

RDA hasn't just made Pettis look like a one-dimensional striker, but essentially an inferior one, too, despite all the ground control.

— Luke Thomas (@SBNLukeThomas) March 15, 2015

That was jaw-dropping.

— John Morgan (@MMAjunkieJohn) March 15, 2015

#andnew !!! Dos Anjos fought a smart & exciting fight. Bringing it to Pettis and not letting Pettis set up his offense. 2 new champs #ufc185

— Sarah Kaufman (@mmasarah) March 15, 2015

What else can you say but complete domination by Rafael Dos Anjos. Amazing! #AndNew #UFC185

— Kenny Florian (@kennyflorian) March 15, 2015

If you want to be a champion don't go to parties , go to the gym guys ;)

— khabib nurmagomedov (@TeamKhabib) March 15, 2015

Want to be more amazed by RDA? According to @AliAbdelaziz00, dos Anios tore his MCL three weeks ago.
