Li Jingliang calls out Rafael dos Anjos and 4 other UFC welterweights 

Li Jingliang extended his call-out to Tony Ferguson to five other UFC welterweights, including former lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos.

The Chinese welterweight took to Twitter to invite six fighters from the promotion to a barbeque party in March, the same month he intends to fight Tony Ferguson in.

Jingliang posted a picture of himself barbequing skewered meat on the grill with an accompanying caption that mentioned Tim Means, Niko Price, Bryan Barberena, Alex Morono, Rafael dos Anjos, and Tony Ferguson.

​

"Hey all of you are also invited to the party if you want to come @MeansTim @Nikohybridprice @bryan_barberena @alexmoronomma @RdosAnjosMMA @TonyFergusonXT in March, I can make barbecue for y’all @ufc"

Jingliang recently signed with Ali Abdelaziz's Dominance MMA management in a bid to turn around his inconsistent streak of results. Three losses in his past five fights is a dismal return and the welterweight will look to overturn that.

'The Leech' called out Tony Ferguson for a fight in March and referenced their scheduled fight last year that fell through owing to Khamzat Chimaev's weight-cutting fiasco that shuffled the UFC 279 main card.

He tweeted:

"Hey Tony @TonyFergusonXT I’m bored now it’s too hot in Florida, let’s party. Me and you have unfinished business let’s dance in March, are you ready? Let’s go Champ @DanaWhite @UFC"

Sean O'Malley disapproves of Rafael dos Anjos calling out Conor McGregor

Rafael dos Anjos replied to a tweet from Conor McGregor where the Irishman promised to 'slice through someone' on his return to action in the octagon.

The one-word reply from Dos Anjos read:

"Bombado"

The word loosely translates to "excited" and is understood as an attempt at making a fight happen by the Brazilian. However, No.1 ranked bantamweight contender Sean O'Malley disagreed with Dos Anjos' call-out.

He criticized him on a recent episode of TimboSugarShow and said:

​

"He definitely looks small, he's definitely a small welterweight but he's so fucking skilled. He called out Conor, it's tricky. You get that little bit of time to make a call-out. Calling out Conor, it just like, that doesn't seem realistic. Conor's not gonna take that fight. RDA's too dangerous."
