Gamrot’s post‑fight callout

Mateusz Gamrot finished Esteban Ribovics at UFC 327, then used his cage interview to call for Diego Lopes next. (mmajunkie.usatoday.com) Gamrot submitted Ribovics with an arm-triangle choke at 4:19 of Round 2 on Saturday, April 11, at Kaseya Center in Miami. MMA Junkie listed Gamrot at 26-4 overall and 9-4 in the Ultimate Fighting Championship after the win. (mmajunkie.usatoday.com) Cageside Press described the fight as a grappling-versus-striking matchup and said Gamrot controlled the action before naming Lopes in his post-fight remarks. The same report said the callout came immediately after the finish. (cagesidepress.com) The callout stood out because Gamrot is a ranked lightweight and Lopes is listed by ESPN as a featherweight. ESPN’s fighter page also shows Lopes is scheduled to face Steve Garcia on June 14, 2026. (espn.com) Gamrot entered UFC 327 after a 2025 loss to Charles Oliveira and a decision win over Ludovit Klein, according to his Ultimate Fighting Championship profile. That same profile listed him at No. 8 in the lightweight division when it was crawled on April 12. (ufc.com) Lopes, meanwhile, had already been back in the title picture this year. ESPN’s profile page says he lost a rematch with Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 325 before being booked against Garcia. (espn.com) That leaves Gamrot with a win, a finish, and a specific name attached to his next move. Whether the Ultimate Fighting Championship treats Lopes as a realistic option or just a post-fight headline will be clearer after Lopes’ June 14 booking. (mmajunkie.usatoday.com)
