Alexandre Pantoja Believes Renato 'Moicano' Can Be UFC Champion One Day

Alexandre Pantoja has high praise for his teammate Renato "Moicano".

Another of their teammates, Kyoji Horiguchi, submitted Tagir Ulanbekov at UFC Qatar last month. “Moicano” had advised bettors to cash in on Horiguchi as an underdog. “Moicano” even predicted that Horiguchi could dethrone Pantoja.

Speaking of “Moicano’s” comments, Pantoja praised his teammate’s mic skills. The flyweight champion notes that “Moicano” has capitalized on his likable personality to build an alternate career in streaming. However, Pantoja also believes that the fellow Brazilian has the skills to be a UFC champion someday.
