Brandon Moreno knows what it means to be called a Mexican fighter, and it has more to do with an attitude than simply what his postal code is.
“My boxing coach, he hates that because sometimes the Mexican fighters forget their technique in the moment when you go to the fight,” laughs the flyweight contender. “But for me, if you watch my fights, even when the moment in the fight is bad for me, I am trying to always go forward and win the fight. That's why I feel amazing to be a Mexican fighter because I know if something bad happens in the middle of the fight, I can go with my heart and win the fight.
