Sergio Moraes out to test Ben Saunders’ chin at UFC Sao Paulo

SAO PAULO, Brazil — “The Panther” wants an exciting fight in the Octagon.

Back to action almost eight months after a controversial split decision win over Tim Means at UFC Belem, Sergio Moraes meets Ben Saunders on the preliminary portion of the UFC Sao Paulo card on Sept. 22 — and he’ll be looking to impress.

“I don’t think it goes the distance. I think I’ll finish him,” Moraes told MMA Fighting. “I will open the game up to make sure it’s an exciting fight. I’m coming out of my comfort zone otherwise there’s no fight.
