Brandon Moreno Drops Flyweight Title
3 years agoIt looks like we will see this contest for a fourth time in the future after Brandon Moreno dropped his flyweight title in a very close decision (47-48, 47-48, 47-48) to Deiveson Figueiredo in the co-main event of UFC 270 on Saturday. Through five rounds of action, Moreno landed 105 significant strikes, actually out-landing Figueiredo, who landed 86 significant strikes. He also stuffed nine of Figueiredo's 11 takedown tries on the night. In an extremely close contest (47-48, 47-48, 47-48) many had the contest split as far as their victor. If/when we see a fourth battle between these two, it looks like it could come down to another decision.
