Mick Maynard’s Shoes: What’s next for Brandon Moreno after UFC Fight Night 246 win?

Former champion Brandon Moreno returned with a statement performance Saturday against Amir Albazi in the UFC Fight Night 246 main event.

After taking a brief break from competition, Moreno (22-8-2 MMA, 10-4-2 UFC) came back in prime form to batter and bloody Albazi (17-2 MMA, 5-1 UFC) for five rounds en route to a unanimous decision at Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Moreno is undoubtedly a key name in the flyweight division with a legacy in the weight class, but given he’s fought most of the top names already, and some of them multiple times, it puts him in a curious position in terms of a title path.

What should be next for Moreno? Watch the video above for thoughts and analysis on his future after UFC Fight Night 246.
