Alexandre Pantoja very well may be the next assignment for Brandon Moreno.
If that proves to be the case, don’t expect Pantoja to be overly complimentary toward the new UFC flyweight champion. Pantoja’s first words when asked backstage about Moreno’s UFC 283 co-main event title unification TKO of Deiveson Figueiredo were: “I’m not impressed.”
Pantoja, who was cageside for the fight, told the UFC’s Megan Olivi in a backstage interview on the ESPN+ post-fight show from Rio de Janeiro he thinks he should get the next title shot.
