On Monday, he contacted the UFC and said what happened. He asked to visit the UFC\u2019s doctor, and they showed the fracture.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In regards to how long until dos Anjos is able to fight again, Cordeiro said:<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;It will take at least three weeks until he\u2019s able to train again, and then we will know when he will be able to fight again, so we can reschedule the fight without any problem&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tuesday morning the MMA world awoke to news that UFC lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos had broken his foot and would no longer be able to fight Conor McGregor in the main event of UFC 196.
