Tatsuro Taira is basking in the moment after securing the biggest victory of his career so far. Last Saturday, Taira squared off against former flyweight champion Brandon Moreno in a pivotal matchup on the main card of UFC 323.
Taira opened the fight with a cautious approach before committing to a hard punch and a takedown attempt. “The Assassin Baby” countered with a triangle setup against the fence, but Taira stayed composed and worked free as the round ended.
In the second round, “The Best” shut down Moreno’s striking with another well-timed takedown, quickly taking the back and locking in a body triangle.
