Fighter on Fighter: Breaking down UFC 256’s Brandon Moreno
Share this story
The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) veteran, Brandon Moreno, will challenge Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Flyweight roost-ruler, Deiveson Figueiredo, this Saturday (Dec. 12, 2020) at UFC 256 inside UFC APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada.
At 27 years of age, Moreno’s 24-fight professional career has already seen its share of ups-and-downs. He rocketed out of the gate to score a trio of title wins and subsequently earn his first main event slot opposite Sergio Pettis, but he came up short and lost his following bout, too. Those defeats came at a bad time, as UFC was cutting Flyweights left and right. Fortunately, it only took one victory to see Moreno return to the roster, and he’s since put together a four-fight unbeaten streak against some of the best 125-pounders on the planet.
