Lmaoi I was thinking the same thing Ricky.  Maybe he meant that he wasn't prepared for Lopes striking?

Second debut tonight that didn't win but put on a good performance. I'm looking forward to see Lopes fight in the UFC again.

Lopes show that he has a really good level of BJJ Tonight I think that if instead of facing an opponent with toughness and hyper flexibility like Evloev he had faced a fighter like Tucker Lutz or even a fighter barely in the top 15 like Damon Jackson he could get some of those armbar or kneebar attempts from the first and third rounds.
