Lopes addresses critics ahead of Volkanovski rematch

    Diego Lopes is set to challenge Alexander Volkanovski for the UFC featherweight title at UFC 325 this Saturday in a rematch.

    The matchup has reportedly drawn criticism from fans who believe other contenders might have been more deserving of the shot.

    Lopes has acknowledged the chatter but says there would be complaints regardless of who was picked and that he won't let it distract him.

    He says he'll accept the opportunity, focus on his performance and let the result speak for itself.

    The two previously fought in April at UFC 314, a bout that ended with the champion prevailing and both earning post-fight bonuses.

    Lopes remains focused on preparing for the rematch despite the controversy surrounding the booking.
