LAS VEGAS – Diego Lopes set out to send a message to the entire featherweight division at UFC 306.
In his own post-fight estimation, that mission has been accomplished.
“My goal was to give a message to the whole division, that I’m a complete, well-rounded fighter,” Lopes told MMA Junkie and other reporters at a post-fight news conference. “I think I was able to do that. If I want to strike for 15 minutes, I’ll do it. If I want to wrestle for 15 minutes, I’ll do that. I think I left my message pretty clear tonight.”
