Ricardo Lamas Wants Career-Boosting Options For His Next Fight

Ricardo Lamas said in an interview with MMAjunkie following his UFC 214 win that he’s looking for a way to get into the title picture. You can see highlights below:

On his next opponent: “I haven’t heard anything yet. I think they might be waiting. There are some big fights coming up in the featherweight division. (Gilbert) Melendez is coming down. He’s a big name. We’ll see how he does against Jeremy Stephens. And then obviously if the (Max) Holloway vs. (Frankie) Edgar fight gets booked – I don’t know, man. We’ll see.”

On his path to a title shot: “Edgar is the guy I haven’t fought yet.”

On his loss to Holloway: “You always feel like you can do better. I feel like I didn’t really perform at my best that night. And it happens in this sport. You’re not going to perform at a 100 percent every time you go out there and fight. So I definitely think there are things that I could have done better and that I could do better if we ever rematch in the future.”

On a rematch with Jose Aldo: “Anything is possible, man. The only thing that I want is options. Give me some options and let me see what’s best for me, for my career.”
