A few days ago to dispute the featherweight belt (up to 65,7 kg) in front of Alexander Volkanovsky No. UFC 314, Diego lopes showed that he is in a good mood.

During the recording, Nina asked Diego for 'extra motivation' to apply the blows with more intensity – and she paid for it. The fighter started joking about the size of the influencer's forehead, who was left open-mouthed by the joke.

Nina, in turn, took it all as a joke. The interaction went viral on social media and showed a more relaxed side of the fighter, who joined the UFC in 2023.
