Diego Lopes often scratches his throat during fights, a habit fans frequently notice.
Lopes explained the tic comes from a childhood accident involving a metal rod that injured his throat.
The scar still causes irritation, especially during intense moments in the Octagon.
He said the movement is involuntary and not linked to breathing or nerves.
Lopes will rematch Alexander Volkanovski in the UFC 325 main event in Sydney.
