Lopez questioned Tsarukyan's championship ambitions

"I don't know if this guy thinks he deserves a title fight in the featherweight division, but if the UFC didn't give him a title fight in the lightweight category, they definitely won't give him one in our division. But I respect him. He's a great athlete, a great guy. He's very dangerous, and if he wants to come to our division, there will be a good fight for him here," said the Brazilian, speaking to the press in Sydney.
