Hailing from Brazil, Diego Lopes is a featherweight competitor who sharpened his craft at Lobo Gym MMA. Before joining the Ultimate Fighting Championship in 2023, he captured the featherweight title under the LUX Fight League banner. An accomplished Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt, he built his reputation on an aggressive finishing style that frequently ends matches through either strikes or submissions. Throughout his time in the organization, he has secured several Fight of the Night and Performance of the Night awards.
Entering UFC 329, the orthodox fighter holds a career record of 28-8-0. His recent campaign includes a knockout victory over Steve Garcia in June 2026. Prior to that, he experienced a unanimous decision loss to Alexander Volkanovski, a result that mirrored their previous encounter. He also holds a TKO win against Jean Silva from late 2025 and a decision victory over Brian Ortega.
