Pulls upset in UFC debut
Lopes defeated Magomed Gadzhiyasulov via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Making his official UFC debut as a +225 underdog, Lopes made a point of leaning on his wrestling. He fired off a whopping 14 takedown attempts in all, landing five for 9:19 worth of control time. The prolonged success on the mat over the course of the final two rounds was enough to earn Lopes the decision despite the fact Gadzhiyasulov did some solid work on the feet in the opening frame. The Brazilian improves to 14-1 as a professional, with the lone defeat coming via knockout to Brendson Ribeiro in his first of two appearances on Dana White's Contender Series.

ANALYSIS
Lopes earned a UFC contract after taking down Mikheil Sazhiniani in a Contender Series fight in August. He'll now face a tough test in his promotional debut against Gadzhiyasulov, who has yet to take a loss nine fights into his professional career.

Comeback effort earns contract
Lopes defeated Mikheil Sazhiniani via TKO (punches) at 4:14 of Round 2 at Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series. After the show, he was one of four winners to earn an official UFC contract.
ANALYSIS
There were only 18 significant strikes landed between the two fighters in Round 1, and Lopes was on the short end of that count and was even knocked down before ultimately recovering. In the second frame, Lopes took advantage of a clearly tired opponent by finding a huge liver shot that crumbled Sazhiniani. From there, just a few follow-up fists were needed to end the proceedings. Lopes is teetering towards the wrong side of "prospect" status at the age of 31, but the 13-1 Brazilian appears ready to add a quality depth option to a light heavyweight division with room for immediate advancement.
