Aleksandar Rakic and Thiago Santos

The number 2nd ranked Light Heavyweight fighter Aleksandar Rakic won his last fight against Thiago Santos by the unanimous decision of the judges. Before this fight, most of the UFC pundits predicted that it is going to be an absolute slugfest but it turned out to be exactly the opposite.

In his recent interview with MMA Fighting, Aleksandar Rakic said that he is eyeing for the title shot now with an easy win against Thiago Santos in his last fight and Santos doesn’t even like this a little bit that Rakic called him an easy fight.

With this recent tweet he blasts Rakic, Santos says, “Hey Aleksandar Rakic Easy fight because I did not ko your ass! I understand that when that doesn’t happen it is already a victory for my opponents!”

The former UFC Light Heavyweight title challenger Thiago Santos faced his third consecutive defeat in his last fight against Aleksandar Rakic with prior two coming against Jon Jones and Glover Teixeira.

With these defeats, he is pushed back to number 4th in the Light Heavyweight rankings and now he is getting away from one more title shot and this is understood that someone calling him an easy fight will make his wounds fresh.
