Bantamweight contender Marlon Moraes hopes to end his bad streak at UFC 266.
Following two rough TKO losses in his last outings, ‘Magic’ is now paired up against rising contender Merab Dvalishvili, against whom the Brazilian expects to score a finish in order to get back on his feet.
In an interview with Combate, Moraes revealed to be drawing inspiration from two UFC dark horses who ended up turning their career arounds and becoming champions: Charles Oliveira and Jan Blachowicz. In Marlon’s opinion, both athletes have taught him that losing is not a problem, as long as a fighter can learn from the defeats and bounce back.
