Earlier today we reported that featherweight prospect Artem Lobov was looking to score a fight with either Cub Swanson or \u201cThe Korean Superboy\u201d Doo Ho Choi.<\/p>\n
Lobov explained this desire in a recent interview with Peter Carroll of SevereMMA.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cReally I\u2019m leaving it up to UFC to decide my next opponent,\u201d he told Carroll. \u201cSean Shelby is the matchmaker, that\u2019s what he\u2019s good at. He\u2019s been doing this for many years and he gave me a good matchup for my last fight. I even told him how grateful I was for him putting that fight together after it.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI think he\u2019ll give me an exciting matchup, but I\u2019m ready for everyone. I wanted Mirsad Bektic, but I saw recently that he has been matched for UFC 209, so it\u2019s not going to be him.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cCub Swanson or \u2018The Korean Superboy\u2019 would be a really good fight. Their last fight was great and I really think I match up well against either of those guys. I really think that would be a good one.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWith Cub especially, I think that would be a very big fight for London. I think the fans would like to see me in there with \u2018The Korean Superboy\u2019 in London as well.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Well it didn’t take long for Swanson to reply to Lobov as he took to Twitter with the following message:<\/p>\n I've never liked Artem anyways lol<\/p>\n — Cub Swanson (@CubSwanson) January 7, 2017<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
