Diego Lopes responds to criticism over Volkanovski rematch at UFC 325 | Against the Cage

from Against the Cage: A New York Post Sports Podcast · host New York Post

Diego Lopes is set to rematch two-time UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 325, a fight booking that surprised many fans. While Lopes stressed that he respects both Lerone Murphy and Movsar Evloev, he posited that their lack of exciting fights (save for a certain spinning elbow) didn't help either of their cases for a title shot. The Mexican & Brazilian star also spoke about his rematch with Volkanovski, and the landscape of the featherweight division in this exclusive interview with Erich Richter on Against the Cage.
