As for Lobov, he's unsure what's next after a decision loss to Fili:
Not sure what the future holds dont want to be retiring & coming back a thousand times. Will think about the futue & update.Thank u all 🇮🇪🇷🇺

It was Lobov's second consecutive loss by decision, as he fell to 13-14-1 on his career. Fili moved to 17-5 as he continues his stretch of win-loss-win-loss results.
We'll see if the UFC responds to these allegations.
