Ricardo Lamas at UFC 180 Onetime UFC featherweight title challenger Ricardo Lamas isn’t clamoring for a title shot just yet, but if the UFC is asking him who he wants to fight next, it’s Conor McGregor . He’ll even keep himself at the ready if McGregor’s next scheduled opponent, Dennis Siver, drops off with an injury. “I’m going to get right back in the gym and keep up with my conditioning, just in case,” Lamas, who at UFC 180 delivered a big upset in a first-round stoppage of Dennis Bermudez, told MMAjunkie Radio. Waiting for McGregor could mean Lamas’ next fight comes in spring, but the Chicago-area native thinks he can still get in three fights, the number he feels is the right amount for keeping him active. Lamas said he isn’t desperate to fight for a title these days, believing it best to simply enjoy his work rather than put energy into promoting a shot at the belt
