Lopes wants to corner Grasso
“That’s absolutely the plan,” Lopes told MMA Junkie and other reporters through an interpreter at Wednesday’s UFC 306 media day. “I know Brian is a great fighter. I’m ready for whatever comes up, but the idea is to run back to the locker room, get changed and go back to corner Alexa.”
“Absolutely we do talk about this,” Lopes said. “I am ready for a war. I’m ready to go full out, and we do debate this as a team and make decisions according to whatever happens, but yeah we spoke about it. We have a strategy for it.”
Lopes went on to discuss the possibility of him becoming a title contender.
“It’s not every day that you hear that,” Lopes said. “I’m going to fight the No. 3 ranked guy in the division, so it’s just great to hear that kind of compliment and that really sets me up in a better position to come up strong.”
