Diego Lopes Targets BMF Title Win Against Charles Oliveira at UFC 335

Diego Lopes is set to challenge Charles Oliveira for the BMF title in the main event of UFC 335. This bout marks the organization's final numbered card of 2026. Lopes, who has secured seven bonuses in his 10 UFC appearances, expressed his desire for an aggressive encounter, stating he hopes to turn the fight into a war where both competitors engage immediately.

Lopes views Oliveira, who holds the record for the most bonuses in promotional history, as the toughest opponent of his career due to his well-rounded finishing ability. To prepare for the move to 155 pounds, Lopes has been training at a walking weight of 180 pounds since his victory over Steve Garcia in June. A win could potentially place Lopes in the conversation for a future lightweight title opportunity.
