Deiveson Figueiredo has ‘personal problem’ with Brandon Moreno: ‘I’m going to break him’
UFC flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo cannot wait to meet Brandon Moreno in the Octagon. Not only did ‘Deus da Guerra’ personally call out the division’s top contender shortly after making quick work of Alex Perez at UFC 255, the Brazilian also wants to finish the fight via brutal knockout.
In an interview with Combate, Figueiredo explained why he specifically called out Moreno, even though a more marketable fight against former bantamweight champ Cody Garbrandt was also available for early 2021. Deiveson answered the question simply: Moreno called him out a few years ago and Deus da Guerra has not forgotten about it.
