Deiveson Figueiredo urges Brandon Moreno to accept trilogy, open to fighting him in Mexico

Deiveson Figueiredo wants five more rounds with Brandon Moreno in the UFC.

Figueiredo lost the UFC flyweight championship to Moreno via third-round submission in June after fighting him to a memorable majority draw in December. He is urging the 125-pound kingpin to go for the trilogy bout next after hearing he needs to earn it first.

“He’s a p*ssy,” Figueiredo told MMA Fighting. “Brandon Moreno is a p*ssy because I was sick when I fought and beat him, and I gave him the rematch right away. I won that fight. They took a point away from me, he pretended to be hurt, he faked an eye poke so they would take points from me, but I still won.
