Young fans often dream of meeting their sports heroes. And you better believe that Brandon Moreno is viewed as a hero to many Mexican fans after he became the first Mexico-born UFC champion last year when he won the flyweight title at UFC 263.
It’s changed Moreno’s life. He’s said as much. And that’s because he has awesome experiences like what the UFC Español Twitter account shared Saturday.
According to UFC Español, a young fan and his family made the roughly 470-mile trip from Monterrey, Mexico (about 120 miles from the Texas-Mexico border) to Houston for the opportunity to meet Moreno during an appearance at a local grocery store.
