Marlon Moraes feels like nobody wants to fight him, believes signing with the UFC 'is just a matter of time’

Marlon Moraes became a free agent after going 11-0 under the WSOF banner between 2012 and 2016, and the rising bantamweight knows where he wants to fight next.

After leaving World Series of Fighting as the 135-pound champion, the Brazilian talent has yet to sign a deal with a MMA promotion, but admits he’s close to becoming a UFC fighter. In the end, that’s exactly where he wants to compete.

"We’re trying to get the right thing, everything right. But, of course, I wanna to go the UFC,” Moraes said on Monday’s edition of The MMA Hour.
