Diego Ferreira is on the most impressive and important run of his career, and he’s hoping a sixth straight win will take him to the next level. If it comes next week, it will be against his most accomplished opponent yet, which certainly would help his case to be considered among the next standouts in the UFC’s lightweight division. Ferreira (16-2 MMA, 7-2 UFC) fights former lightweight champion Anthony Pettis (22-9 MMA, 9-8 UFC) on the main card at UFC 246, which takes place Jan. 18 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas
