For Brandon Moreno, Deiveson Figueiredo rivalry remains unsettled: ‘A fourth fight is needed’

Now a few days removed from the trilogy bout against Deiveson Figueiredo, Brandon Moreno’s feelings remain the same.

The Mexican star wants nothing other than a fourth title fight with Figueiredo (21-2-1 MMA, 9-2-1 UFC) following their clash in the co-main event of this past Saturday’s UFC 270 in Anaheim, Calif.

In a competitive, back-and-forth fight that won the card’s “Fight of the Night” award, Moreno (19-6-2 MMA, 7-3-2 UFC) lost his UFC flyweight belt, coming up short 48-47 across all three judges’ scorecards. The result put the record between them even, as they first fought to a draw at UFC 256 in 2020, and then Moreno won their second meeting via submission at UFC 263 in 2021.
