Jussier Formiga vs. Brandon Moreno among new additions to UFC Brasilia

The UFC has finally announced many previously reported matches for its upcoming card in Brasilia, Brazil, on March 14, but added some new match-ups as well.

In the flyweight division, veteran Jussier Formiga faces off with Brandon Moreno, while Brasilia-native Rani Yahya takes on Enrique Barzola. Venezuela’s Veronica Macedo moves back up to bantamweight to battle Bea Malecki.

Formiga (23-6) will attempt to rebound from a second-round loss to Joseph Benavidez, which stopped his longest winning streak in the UFC at four in a row, while Moreno (16-5-1) looks to remain unbeaten since returning to the promotion earlier this year.
