Brian Ortega (16-3, one no-contest) is set to take on Diego Lopes in the co-main event of UFC 303 on Saturday in Las Vegas. Ortega is coming off a submission win over Yair Rodriguez back in February to return to the win column, and now he will take on the rising contender in a fight that was booked on two weeks of notice. Despite Ortega being ranked third and Lopes being ranked 14th, T-City enters the bout as the underdog, as DraftKings has him at a salary of $7,800. In the UFC, Ortega is 8-3 with a no-contest, with seven of his wins by stoppage, while two of his losses have come via stoppage (one due to injury). If Ortega can pull off the upset, he should get a third crack at the featherweight title.--Cole Shelton
