Fortune came calling, and Keweny Lopes answered.
The Andre Pederneiras-trained Brazilian will fill in as a short-notice replacement Donovan Desmae and take his first Professional Fighters League assignment when he confronts Amin Ayoub in the 2025 PFL Europe 3 headliner on Friday at Zenith Nantes Metropole in Nantes, France. Lopes has rattled off 12 wins across his past 14 appearances. He last competed on May 17, when he flattened Heliton dos Santos with a Superman punch just 26 seconds into their encounter under the Jungle Strike Championship flag.
