This fight is scheduled for UFC 314 on April 12th from the Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida.
This will be Volkanovski's first fight back since losing his title to Ilia Topuria at UFC 298 last year. Diego Lopes earns his first title opportunity here after his dominant decision win over Brian Ortega at UFC 306.
