Diego Lopez said he would be ready to fight Movsar Yevloyev after he beat Alex Volkanovski.
"We have to be fair and we can't ignore what he's done in the division. He has nine straight wins in the UFC. Yes, all decisions, but he remains undefeated, he's No. 4 in the rankings, and whether we like it or not, he beat me. And if I take the championship belt, I'm pretty sure the UFC will put him as the next challenger."
