Brandon Royval avenged one of the key losses of his career against Brandon Moreno on Saturday at UFC Fight Night 237 – and did it in enemy territory.
Royval (16-7 MMA, 6-3 UFC) went into a hostile situation at Mexico City Arena in Mexico City and upset former two-time flyweight champion Moreno (21-8-2 MMA, 9-4-2 UFC) by split decision, getting one back after he suffered a first-round TKO loss in their first meeting back in November 2020.
With the win, Royval could potentially get another title shot against Alexandre Pantoja at UFC 301 in May.
