    Yeah .... Making 145 was too hard for Ortega in 2 weeks time .

    They had two weeks to help save the card, glad they helped them out.

    Ortega desperate to hang on to that ranking he never earned

    Ortega looks like he has never picked up a weight in his life. Probably why he’s always getting hurt

      Anabolic steroids make joints and cartilage weak.
      He's from the same camp as TJ.

    Uhhhh WTF WHY? I get Ortega was eyeing lightweight fights but what does this do for Lopes if he wins?

      Dana really like Lopez I’m sure he will still get a huge bump in the ranking no matter what if he wins

      For sure. With ortega leaving the weight class , Lopes will definitely be third @Rosendo-ms4yk

    Ortega never conditioned his body properly & he's going to pay for it. Lopes is ripped

    Ortega should be cut from the UFC. Don't accept a fight and sign a contract only to screw over your opponent. Now if Lopes wins this does NOTHING for him in his OWN weight class. Wtf.

      What are you talking about they both weighed in at 155….wasn’t like Diego was down at 145 and Ortega weighed in at 155….that would be bad. Ortega doing Diego a huge solid taking a #14 on 2 weeks noticed. Paying back UFC for his Frankie Edgar fight and even that Ortega had already marched through cub, moicano, Brandao etc…so not getting the hate here but 🤷🏼‍♂️ freedom of speech 🇺🇸👍🏻🥋

      @@pc3903You don’t get it Lopez had already cut to 145 yeaterday. Ortega looks as if he didn’t even try. Lopez had to rehydrate over night to regain the 10 pounds. Ortega probably planned this to have a energy and weight advantage.
