The UFC Flyweight champion, Deiveson Figueiredo and Brandon Moreno put on a show at their epic clash on UFC 256. Their fight is one of those fights, which the fans strive for.
Figueiredo and Moreno tore each other apart for five rounds and the only thing that was left is the decision of a winner, as this fight ended as a draw. Since then the fight fans are waiting for the rematch and UFC 263 will decide whose hand will be raised between them.
Brandon Moreno and Deiveson Figueiredo agreed to face each other on just three weeks’ notice on UFC 256. Now, both of them will be coming into this fight with a proper camp and Moreno guarantees more aggression in this one.
In his latest interview with MMA Fighting, Moreno says, “Right now my confidence is very, very high, I need to be smart, I understand he’s powerful, he’s real, he’s a real opponent, he’s a real fighter, that’s why he’s a champion.”
“But my confidence is very high, I know I can make some really good damage in this next fight against him.”
Moreno continued, “I can be more aggressive because all my game plan in two weeks was like, be careful, take the time to see the counters, and take care of his power, and that’s it. Right now, I feel his power, I know I can support the damage and I can be more aggressive.” {H/T MMA Figthing}
The world has seen Moreno 2.0 in his fight against Figueiredo and he believes, version 3.0 is going to be more aggressive. Brandon Moreno added, “Obviously, everything is just words, but you need to see the next Brandon Moreno,”
“I’m trying to stay focused on my conditioning. I want to be stronger than ever, I want to have better cardio than ever, so you need to watch the next fight. I’m working on my body and my conditioning so much.” {H/T MMA Figthing}
Brandon Moreno claims he’ll not leave anything for trilogy with a win in this one
The UFC Flyweight champion, Deiveson Figueiredo lost only one fight in his MMA career. His last fight against Moreno was the only draw of his career. But Brandon Moreno is also a finishing artist and he claims when he’ll finish ‘Dues da Guerra” in the first or second round there will be no need for the trilogy.
Moreno says, “In this kind of situation, the people maybe are waiting for a trilogy? But I need to finish this rivalry with this guy. I need to finish this guy. I want to be a champion. I’m working so hard.” {H/T MMA Figthing}
“I’m young, I’m 27 years old, but I have 10 years like a professional, I have 15 years in this sport working so hard, I just dream all night of the belt around my waist. I just need to finish this guy.”
Brandon Moreno concluded, “If the fight is so hard and we go to the fourth, fifth round, but I get the knockout, obviously maybe the people want to see the third fight, but if I can finish this guy in the first one, in the second one, we can finish the rivalry right there.” {H/T MMA Figthing}
