Diego Lopes plans to beat Alexander Volkanovski on explosive fashion on UFC 314.
Later tonight the Brazilian will compete for the empty featherweight title, for a raw crowd in the Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida, USA.
The task for him will certainly not be easy, because his opponent is known for his Vechtgeest. Volkanovski somehow survived a frightening Brian Ortega Guillotine and has compiled a CV with Max Holloway and Jose Aldo.
Despite the earlier performance of the Australian, Lopes does not expect the legend to take the distance.

Diego Lopes says he will finish Alexander Volkanovski on UFC 314
Diego Lopes continued in the training camp to ensure that he is ready for everything that Alexander Volkanovski brings to the table.
But while the 30-year-old is willing to go the distance as he has to, his game plan is to make the former 145 pound king unconscious.
In an interview with Daniel Cormier, he explained: “I know that Volkanovski has a lot of experience in the UFC and Vecht in five rounds. But I have prepared for rounds one, two, three, four, five, if necessary.
“But I have to finish this fight. I did not train to make the decision; I train to end the fight. Look at my record; they are 26 wins, 22 Finishes. This is my goal – my goal is to end the fight.”
According to ex-PUC star, Alexander Volkanovski could lose to Diego Lopes because of a major disadvantage
