UFC Fighter Diego Lopes Makes Dramatic Exit After Winning Bout Against Jean Silva
UFC fighter Diego Lopes secured a victory against Jean Silva in a thrilling second-round fight on Saturday evening in San Antonio. Lopes knocked out his countryman with a powerful spinning back elbow, earning himself a $100,000 prize, as reported by Full Send MMA.
Moments after the win, Lopes was seen chugging Gatorade to recover. However, the celebration was short-lived as Lopes suddenly stopped the proceedings and got violently sick, vomiting bright liquid into a nearby trash can.
Lopes later apologized to those around him, claiming to have experienced an 'adrenaline dump' after the fight. A doctor examined Lopes and cleared him of a concussion, but no further information is provided about the nature or cause of Lopes's sickness.
This is Lopes's first win since his loss to Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 314 in Miami back in April. The victory was a bounce back win for Lopes, as it was Silva's first loss inside the Octagon.
After departing the Octagon, Lopes conducted an interview backstage, but the incident cast a shadow over his triumphant moment. Lopes did not appear to show much physical damage after the fight, with the liquid expelled by him being orange in colour.
No information is provided about any consequences or reactions to the incident. This is the second fight of 2025 for Lopes, who previously suffered a loss to Volkanovski.
Lopes's victory against Silva was arguably the biggest win of his career, and it remains to be seen how he will bounce back from the dramatic exit following his triumph.
