UFC flyweight Lone’er Kavanagh wants to continue having good scraps on his way to the top coming off his decision victory over Felipe dos Santos at UFC London on Saturday.
“At the end of the day I love fighting, and I realize we’re in the entertainment business,” Kavanagh told reporters including Cageside Press at his post-fight scrum.
“If I can be entertaining while it’s getting to the top then I’m all for it.”
Kavanagh (9-0) continues his undefeated career with the win over dos Santos. With a bright future ahead Kavanagh knows it’s a bit early to call out names.
“I don’t have a hit list as such. I don’t know too many people, I don’t watch UFC that much, but whatever my manager Jose Diaz and my coaches say, I’m up for it,” he said.
“For me, I’m always about one fight at a time, so whatever’s next I’m happy.”
One of the highlights of the night for Kavanagh was getting a visit from the former UFC featherweight champion Ilia Topuria. Topuria went to congratulate Kavanagh and have a few words with him.
“I’m a big fan of Ilia. I love watching his fights. I go on TikTok I watch his highlights, and then him walking into the change room, saying that he likes my style,” he said.
“I’m like oh what’s going on here, but yeah it was awesome. He said nothing but nice things.”
