Dan Ige co-headlined UFC 303 in Las Vegas with a fight against Diego Lopes .
Ige was supposed to fight Chepe Mariscal on July 20 at a UFC Fight Night event at the Apex .
He thought he was getting the call to fight Lopes at a later date , thinking Lopes ’ fight with Ortega had been canceled.
But his manager and UFC brass were scrambling to get Ige to fight in a few hours .
Nicksick asked no questions and quickly assembled a last-minute corner, calling PFL ’s Kai Kamaka III and former UFC champion Sean Strickland .
Abdelaziz then picked up Ige and took him to the arena.
Luckily for Ige, he was on weight as 165 pounds is his walk-round weight in camp and weighed in no problem.
Lopes was also weighed in at 161 pounds , making their co-main event bout official.
Ige went on to lose a 29 -28 unanimous decision to Lopes .
