This kid is always fun to watch and has the potential to do big things. People shouldn't be critical towards him at all; he literally cut weight 3 times inside 24 hours. Wake up people!!!!!!
Not necessarily true. He cut once to 146 and weighted in at 161 for the 65 weigh in so he didn’t have to cut to 165 he was already under.
Hes delusional. The hawaiian was giving him a bully beatdown. Now he thinks he can have a volk matchup
@@mhutch5082😂😂😂😂
He did not cut 3 times in 24 hours lmfao, his weight class got changed 3 times. And Peyton talbott a 135er weighs in at 161 the day of his fight, so I’m gonna assume lopes is around the same. ige had to weigh in at 165 hours before the fight so I’m gonna assume they were around the same weight. I promise you lopes was probably gonna fight anyone, he did a short weight cut and wanted to be paid. Ige is the top dog for this imo, he already had a fight coming up against a way easier opponent.
Diego is a MONSTER and deserves all the respect he is getting….But learning English would serve him so well.
Diego - 2 week notice fight (no real fight camp ), in 2 days he went from 145 weight cut , to 155lb , changed again to 165lbs , and changed his opponent with a different fight style 3 hrs before his walkout vs
Ige - 3 month fight camp that had a fight in 1 or 2 weeks (basically done with his fight camp), 3 hour notice, and he did NOT have to cut any weight ...
GREAT fight and respect to both fighters but great WIN for Diego after such a chaotic 2 weeks
THIS
his english will get better.........time
Handled that week/situation like a star 👏👏
I think Volk outclasses him on the feet and thwarts any grappling attempt. But a massive chance he get nuked by a clinch uppercut or something and his chin is still gone
I wouldn't like Volk coming back that soon after getting put out cold by Ilia and even then it would still be within a year that he got tko'd by Volk. Hopefully he gets like Bryce Mitchell or Emmett
Volk is finished
Lopes vs Yair is the fight to make for ufc 306
Diego is a true warrior for this
Him vs Almighty Arnold if Allen wins against Giga would be good
No
What a G!
Not volk! Yair or ortega
I agree
I do hope they rebook the Ortega fight, originally I thought Lopes would destroy him, but after seeing the Ige fight, I think it'd be a lot more competitive.
2 weeks notice, assigned 2 different opponents, accepted the second one 2 hours prior, and cutting down to 146 only to fight at 165.... We really can't take nothing away from that fight
Unless he catches Volk this wont be fun for him.. Ngl
He finishes volk in a round easy
@@DeseanStrickland12307 lmao possibly, either way that's his one way to win
Volk has dogshit boxing. He's getting knocked out 3 times in a row
@@dyfox3856 😂tell Max, Yair, etc that
@@PDaddy0120 ilia literally walked him to the fence, drew out a reaction, then landed an overhand right. That's after attempting that same sequence enough for volk to recognize it...yet he didn't.
Diego and Dan deserve the world! The sphere rematch with kind full camps… sidenote, Poirier deserves a rematch
Set it up!!! Lopez vs. Volk
Title shot next, UFC owe you lad
DIEGO I DON'T THINK YOU COULD LAST 5 ROUNDS YOU SERIOUSLY LOOKED WINDED DA 2 , 3 ROUND DA FIGHT AGAINST DAN IGE.
Ige didn't cut weight
I’m a huge supporter of lopes but if Ige did that to him on 4 hours notice he’s gonna have a hard time with a full training camp volk
talking about hype trend ... This are the guys 😂😂😂😂
Hear me out… Josh Emmett vs Diego who wouldn’t be down for that?!
Josh to old and slow u jus want to see if lopes can take a good shot from old man emmett 😂
@@roddasilva4288 yea would be a tuff matchup for Josh but his power could be the difference maker but I hear u he’s on his way out
Topuria fights who-ever, hopefully Max; & Diego fights Volk. I like it. I reckon Volk's got him covered, but Diego is a proper chance. Great fight! Diego, Perth, Western Australia, vs. Volk. ✌😄
I think either Ortega or Yair next is the right move for Lopes. Volk deserves a title rematch after the reign he had, even if Topuria loses the title to Max and we see a 4th fight between him and Volk.
He would murder Yair lol
@@giacalonebuilding4443 probably, but it's a step up in the rankings and it's a fun fight, especially if they wanted to do it at the sphere.
Him vs Volk is a must! He’s deadly offering sub’s from every angle on the ground and his chin can take Volk on easily. His gas tank will not tho😂😂😂😂
I agree, if 5 rounds I think volk grinds him out and beats him up late rounds
@@giacalonebuilding4443he needs more 5 round experience honestly.
@@Fitkid7672lopes had gonna a full 5 rounds twice before
lets be real Volkanovski will be a tough fight for this young man
You're not ready for Volk bro and I'm a fan
After the ige fight, I feel like he needs more fight experience as well.
Volk chin is well gone lad
Nope. Him Vs ige. He didn't look good enough in the 3rd to move on IMO.
Ige deserves something for the short notice fight. A rematch is more than payment
I respect the savagery but he’s not ready for bulkanovski
Ortega should've kept that mouth mask on during meal times
Ortega doesn't deserve this fight anymore, sure he had a fever (supposedly) but he waited to tell lopez the weight was changing AFTER he knew lopez had cut all the weight, ortega would have knew he wasnt making the weight and probably stopped cutting/ never cut to begin with, scummy move not twlling your opponent asap, sure it's smart on brians part letting his opponent drain himself but doesnt make it any less scummy
Dan ige on 4 hrs notice. Won d end of the fight. If it was 5 rds. I see him losing. Respect for what hes been through this week.
But volk is a lvl higher. And if he beats volk. Then volks just not the same guy anymore. Simple as that.
Every fighter peaks once maybe volk is over.
So this matchup makes sens.
Respect to lopes but volk will make him look like a rookie 🇦🇺 🪃
He’s not ready he barely beat Dan
Short notice and he cut down to 146 then 155 then 165 severely affecting his endurance against ige who didnt have to cut at all and has been in training camp for 3 months in peak condition
@@wherecanwespeak9246 stop with the excuses man you’re acting like he was fighting ilia
@@apostle75423 different weight classes 2 different opponents this isn’t an excuse he won it’s possible reasons for his performance changing weight classes like that really messes with you
@@littlebigman5457 he’s still good but he has not earned a #1 contender fight he’s gotta fight ortega or Yair first
@@apostle7542just someone in the top 5.
Volkanovski?
Why not the evloev rematch
Hes not getting volk lmao
Why Volk will fight someone at 14th ranked?? He can fight Sterling or rematch With Ige, it was close fight.
Volk will wait for title shot.
He gassed in the 3rd as he did with Evloev. He needs to fix this.
fight style honestly, kinda like mcgregor, not that they have the same style, but both styles are fit for finishing in the first 2 or 3 rounds
Diego López 14 vs dan ige 13 rematch in featherweight its a Great fight to make 5 rounds
ige already had an advantage over lopes and couldnt get it done so i dint see the point of a rematch.
@@DavidHasselhoff-tm3hv fight night 5 rounds It would be nice fight
Volk either lost the ability to box or he never had it. Either way, stay away from Diego
I’m sorry but volkanovski obliterates
Volk is aging though..
Cut ortega for dirty sportmanship
Diego lopes as a full blood mexican i baptize you mexican now brother !!!
Horrible translator, you don’t really need one, bro
Yeah don’t deserve to fight volk yet sorry man.
