Diego Lopes is excited to have a rematch with Brian Ortega after their original fight was canceled last minute. Lopes, who emerged victorious in his short-notice match against Dan Ige, is determined to go head-to-head with Ortega next in the UFC. Despite receiving challenges from other fighters, Lopes has chosen to overlook them, stating that a showdown with a top-five contender is in the cards for him. Lopes is of the opinion that a triumph over Ortega would propel him closer to a title shot. While the UFC has confirmed Lopes’s presence on the UFC 306 pay-per-view lineup, his opponent is yet to be finalized. Nevertheless, Lopes values the opportunity to fight Ortega over just being on the event’s roster.
