Video: Do questions remain in the Brandon Moreno-Deiveson Figueiredo rivalry after UFC 283?

Brandon Moreno and Deiveson Figueiredo had their historic fourth fight at UFC 283, and many believe it brought a definitive end to the rivalry between the two flyweights.

Moreno (21-5-2 MMA, 9-2-2 UFC) recaptured the 125-pound belt when Figueiredo (21-3-1 MMA, 10-3-1 UFC) was deemed unfit to continue due to an eye injury, resulting in a third-round TKO in the co-main event clash at Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro.

With the win, Moreno moved ahead 2-1-1 in the series and seemingly put the rivalry on the back burner for good. That seems especially true with Figueiredo announcing plans to move up to the bantamweight division going forward.
