“Camp was good. I am just taking off the last few pounds. I take my weight off slowly, and be comfortable, and then I rehydrate the right way,” Said Lopez.
Lopez knows a win over the tough Diaz would get him right back in contention in the 122 iphawundi division.
“I think a win gets me back to the place where I was at before the Roman fight. I will be knocking on the door of a title fight.”
“Diaz is a rough fighter, and I expect a tough fight from him. He has some good wins, and even though he has lost a few fights, four of them have been to undefeated fighters and the other was to a fighter with one loss, so I expect and I am preparing for the best Jorge Diaz.”
“
I just want everyone to come out on November 18th,
and I will put on a good show.”
