#UFC256
what a guy, just finished a bloody war and is still happy and positive. Moreno's gained all my respect!
@The Bank Robber Joker hey literal Larry. You don’t have to kill the fun
What a good dude for real man. Definitely one of my new favorite fighters
@The Bank Robber Joker facts
For real though he's just so upbeat and humble.
man i am in love with this guy
There's absolutely no way to dislike this guy. Personality. Positivity. Fighting the champ like he did. 😳
Looks a lil like Eddie Guerrero aswell Championship material.
Who are you noticing disliking him?
He won that fight too idc what they say, he won WITHOUT that point from the low blow, don't know what they were watching.
@@buddyfortwente3082 oath bro
@@buddyfortwente3082 In my opinion too. All the rounds were close, but he had those takedowns. I got it 3 to 2 rounds Moreno, not counting the deduction even. Will make for one hell of a rematch tho.
That was just like a regular Mexican bar fight... 1. Eyes poked 2. Nuts destroyed 3. Arms broken And still nobody is declared the winner! 😬✊👏
Shoot bro that's just one of our family reunions!
@@bobbarker14 lol
i thought he won too
🤣🤣🤣🤣
fucking hilarious comment LOL
*REMATCH IS A MUST, Dudes a warrior. Moreno’s backstory is amazing. Dude has HEART OF HEARTS* 🙌🏼🙏🏼
*WHY DO YOU WRITE IN BOLD AND CAPITALS EVERYWHERE*???
@@anujjyothykumar4667 STFU. THANK YOU 😘
Hard not to love that guy (Moreno)! A true humble WARRIOR! Pure class...
figgy gets smoked in the second fight lol he’s gonna dodge this fight on some adsanya shit
when Champion meet Mexican! Heart,Chin,Cardio,skill trademarke.what a fight!!
That’s how you get the whole world to respect you, What a fight.
That post fight interview was just as good
@@justawinddown He won me over as a fighter in 25 minutes (actually more like by the first round, but was increasingly more impressive as the fight went on) and he won me over as a person in these 2 minutes 44 seconds.
@@seanmatthewking I could't not agree with you more. He got me feeling good and positive just watching this video right now! Very inspiring performance.
I came to watch Davidson knock out someone and left a Moreno fan.
Right!
same
Same man I am huge fan of Brandon! He is good guy with heart
You came not knowing what his name is, and left still not knowing what his name is.
@@pflges1117 🤦🏼♂️😂
2:37 the expresion of Moreno when Joe says "it was an honor to call your fight" what an amazing and humble human being Brandon is!
Everybody's in love with Moreno now but as soon as he loses a fight watch how many people turn on him and start talking shit like how everyone is talking down on Tony for two losses in a row.
Exactly man. I hope Tony can come back bro he’s my favorite ufc fighter he has so many great fights to watch. My other favorites are Dustin p and Kevin Holland
No reason to talk Tony down but I don’t think he could be elite again tho but he will always been good. Khabib pointed it out the fight he had with Justin changed him. Fights like that change fighters. I hope we Tony returns to his old self but I just don’t see it happening. He was reacting to counters that weren’t even there and he looked hesitant to throw because he was thinking of the counter punch/punches that could come his way. But I hope he breaks that mentality and comes back to his old self
He just lost the fight and no one is talking shit
Erik Carrillo well it depends how he loses, technically he lost this fight but gained everyone’s respect because he put on an amazing performance. Tony got dominated twice in a row, that’s not the same as just dropping two in a row, the beating he took off Justin after cutting weight twice has seemed to be the nail in the coffin in his already long and damaging career. I hope Tony makes a comeback but it seems like he’s done.
Got to take life on step at a time and try to enjoy the moment you're in or you'll never be happy.
Dude got kicked in the nuts, got his eye poked and still went the distance.. Deserves a rematch 💯
Arguably won. Deserves a definite rematch
And he messed up his arm pretty bad in the 5th
Guys let's give both guys credit both fought with adversity.
*in Joe Rogan's voice* Indeed
A rematch?? Considering Fig went to the hospital, he deserves the damn belt dude. He's just too humble to admit it.
The build to this fight turned me into a fan, his heart and performance insured I’d be a fan for life. What a performance from Brandon. Incredible.
Very well said, same here. That was incredible
@Matt Reidthat was a tough fight to score, it was razor close. Moreno fought his ass off and showed alot of heart. He should be proud
Google global truth project and read "the Present" to see the truth about life/death. Nothing is more important than checking it is true, especially pgs 1-4
I was a fan since December 9th
He got eye poked, swollen eye, injured arm, nut kicked, and still managed to go to war for 5 rounds and almost got the win. I'm not even Mexican and I'm proud of him. That's Mexican chin and heart.
He got the win
@@paovue2638 wrong fight bud lol
This dude is a champ, he’s so positive and has so much heart. No way he loses a rematch!
Yeah he does. He landed some good shots but he was out performed in 4 of 5 rounds
@@dannyholder9711 hell nah , he won 2nd and 4th
@@julianbarnes1440 nope. He got out struck in round 2 an definitely got hit with the harder shots
@@dannyholder9711 bro striking numbers dont matter , if ur going by that then moreno outstuck him by the Numbers in the 3rd round , which would make that a 10-8 round . cmon now . watch the round and score it dont just look at the number dummy

He was so tough, so durable and had so much heart. He deserves a rematch.
Was a draw, rematch is in the way..
As he should. He’s mexican it’s in his blood. 🇲🇽

@@heeroshadow6 how come you get bothered by our people bringing our culture into this, it’s in our blood, don’t be a hater just appreciate the warrior spirit Mexican fighters bring.
@@STI.Ricardito read what I said, I get it I just dont do it, it dont bother me at all, all I'm saying is Moreno won a fan from me, great fighter great warrior.
This dude almost brought tears from my eyes during the fight What heart! The combos in round 4 had me jumping! 🔥🔥 🇳🇬🇳🇬
Bro same. It gave me Welli v Joanna feelings
warrior battle. Epic!
He said i think I fine lmao
Man same i had to go tell my brother downstairs to watch the fighy
Ma brutha🇲🇽🇳🇬
Moreno is inspirational!!! When life kicks you in the groin , you take a few breath , spit some blood and get back up! Truly truly amazing *Mexican fighter*
👊🔥💯
I told everyone ! Moreno ain’t no one to play with, Mexican blood he a warrior
@ExpiredSushi what u smokin bruh?
I actually predicted him winning, was sort of right
@@dio8684 I was rooting for Moreno all the way because of that Mexican blood
@ExpiredSushi you should look up figueiredo today
ExpiredSushi All of that eye damage was from an eye poke. I actually think Moreno did more damage and hurt Figgy more
Man, this guy is incredible.
@Strong Beach. Definitely, nobody can have a sound argument as to how Figgy kept the belt
This fight was magical. Watched it live. Never gonna miss him ever fighting again :-)
Realtalk
Brandon was a true mexican warior, Everyone underestimated him, for the whole week everyone keep saying Figgy would knock him out in the 1st round do this do that, the fight happens and Brandon showed tons of heart after getting eyepoked, kicked in the nuts , but he never give up and still winning the fight... all the respect for Brandon
Robert Irwin 100%
when Champion meet Mexican! Heart,Chin,Cardio,skill trademarke.what a fight!!
@Nim Rod haha i know its corny.., but you get what i mean
I gotta say, I said going into this fight that Fig would be the most reliable betting pick. That turned out massively wrong! Lol! But to be fair, I made that determination only knowing what Fig was about and not really knowing anything about Moreno. And based on Fig’s performance alone, I still think I was right about Fig. He would have put most of the flyweight division out with the punches he was throwing. And his power was there the entire fight. It’s just that Moreno seems to be a very durable fighter, so he could take everything that was given and give it back. I’m excited for the rematch because it’s clear Fig underestimated Moreno, but that reality didn’t seem to cause Fig to lose his confidence when things weren’t going his way. Either way, they’ll both be adjusting, and it’ll will be telling about both of them how they have prepared themselves for the rematch. I also think overall Fig is the more dangerous fighter. I’m not sure Moreno is so good that he’d win on points against every other flyweight. And he’s not going KO everyone unless they try to brawl with him repeatedly. His durability could be beat by someone picking him apart from the outside. Fig can KO or submit fighters quickly when they make a mistake.
It's that Mexican blood you know...💥😔💪
I fell asleep as Figueiredo was walking to the octagon 😭 I missed a hell of a fight. Watching from the UK sucks.
😂💔
history repeats itself
Im from spain and its one houre later
This man always provides us good vibes doesn’t matter win or lose 😊
Imagine this fight with crowd.
Ikr
I would have paid double for the ticket.
We would have bowed for that performance
Amen
DUDE!!!! 🔥
Mexican style at its finest!🇲🇽
New fan here bro.
Ahuevo
Dana said he is the prototype of a real Mexican fighter. It’s crazy how he brought the fight to a Brazilian terminator!! 😳
The moment he got kicked in the groin and he was in so much agony, everyone thought that Moreno was DONE! but mexican mentality man! INSPIRATIONAL
Yessir!🇲🇽
If i was moreno i would be soo fucking pissed off because I got robbed but instead moreno is just smiling and moving forward ! That guy is just amazing he’s my favorite ufc fighter!! God bless him!!! And I’m blessed to see him fight.
"I think I'm fine". Wait til that adrenaline wears off. Such a stud tho. He's a gem.
Yeah the next day is always the worse
A 5 round war and this dude says “I feel amazing, I feel really good to be honest” lol 😂 much respect
Never let them see u hurt!
Broken eye socket and all talking about going to the gym next week lol
Adrenaline
He still smiling lol what a warrior
Thos dude is so humble it's crazy, what a fight too.
McLovin' stood his ground against the god of war.
Mclovin-gangsters
Assassin Baby is my new favorite fighter. Dude brought the fight to a Brazilian Terminator 😳 and never backed down. Must be something in the Mexican blood! 🇲🇽 🔥
Can I say that from what I see, Mexicans are such hardworking people,and Moreno really portrayed their fighting spirit. Some hardworking tough people
Dude both came from a difficult background They both want to compete Sometimes is true the belt does not matter is just the competition They both have heart They both wanted the fight They both fought thought it What a fight Im Mexican and my heart belongs to Moreno But I think that Ir Moreno. Would have praasure ir more in the last round. He would it have won Amazing fight Both great Latin American. Warriors
Lol mexican the dudes whiter than rogan. Us Real mexicans have navajo
@@westernkratom1694 he’s mexican, just because he doesn’t look indigenous does not mean he doesn’t have the Aztec blood in him. As Mexicans we all have a lot of Spanish blood in us.
@western Kratom. Dude you’re stupid. Mexicans come in all shapes, sizes, colors, etc. being mexican goes beyond all that.
100% worth every penny I paid for this card!
you didn't pay
@Liquor Beaver lol me too I streamed it
@@aidenfrost10 how do you know
With a name like the Kaiser you think his lining JEWFC pockets....negative
yeah same! 🤥
McLovin put up one hell of a fight.
lol i was looking for this comment!
I been saying he the Mexican mclovin hahahaha
When DC said that I thought he was talking about Figuerido lol
The smile and positivity flow from that guy, fan for life.
What a good kid! Humble and will be a great champ. I think that thumb in his eye when he was on top was intentional 100% figgy fights dirty when he's in trouble
He attempted a second time when moreno protested having that poke coming.
Yeah sadly champions are champions for a reason. They do W.E to win
Yes , he was gassing out before the kick to the nuts , he was not defending punches , was being really slow , after the kick to the nuts he recover , hes a beast but that and the finger in the eyes was dirty
@Lucky Moreno moreno was levetated from the kick. That was a fight ending foul. Shouldve deduct 2 points.
@@dinbachok6424 forced
No one thought this kid could pull it off but he gave us one hell of a fight and he arguably won this. Respect
Fig won rounds 1,2,5 arguably 4 rounds , 1 judge had Fig winning despite the point takeaway without point takeaway this is a unanimous decision for Fig even media was split with 13 having Fig win despite point takeaway and 14 having draw Moreno did not win that fight you just don't understand mma scoring and had bias commentary blasted up he did not arguably win this fight only reason there was a draw was because a point takeaway
@@andrewortiz6430 I had Moreno wining 2,3 and 4 due to the point deduction
Dude got kicked in the balls.
@@Forrealdoe73 Moreno definitely didn't win round three.. it was 10-9 Figgy but point deduction made it 9's
@@andrewortiz6430 lmao clown, moreno won 3 and 4 easy + a point deduction, figgy won 1, barely 2 and 5 where he won solely on being more active not because he did anything impressive. moreno had all the takedowns and although figgy landed more hard strikes moreno came close to finishing like 2 times, something figgy didint. figgy also cheated twice.
Hell yeah! Proud mexican from Tijuana! Shout out to Entram the best MMA gym in Mexico!
This kid Moreno did very good. Hes a beast and showed absolute skill and heart
I've always liked Moreno hope he gets another shot 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
No doubt we will
Hee isss awesome. Great guy. #Respect from INDIA 🇮🇳
wasnt know him, but i am impressed by his performance
Eye poke happens DC: That's a nasty one
To be honest, I didn't think Moreno would do so well. He fought five rounds with great guts even if he was kicking the groin and eye pokes. It's well worth getting a Flyweight belt.
@@xo3093 Rda; Justin Poirier
@Jizzrael Bumbender Don't edit such a short sentence. Are you bad at English too?😂🤣
@Jizzrael Bumbender The view of this foreigner who is not good at English was correct, and you didn't see MMA.
@Jizzrael Bumbender What? Do you eat dogs? I really look down on you.
@Jizzrael Bumbender I just can't understand what you don't like. I'm not your mother, so please do it yourself.
I like this guy, that’s all I have to say
Yup, seems like a good humble guy..respect!
Same, he is my favorite fighter
This is like the mini version of JDS, always grateful in victory and in defeat 👏
Lol understood Max
Man was folding after he received that devastating kick to the balls. Amazing how he can come back and managed to get a draw.
He's so wild. The nickname 'the assassin baby' really suit him.
Such a cool positive great guy - at the same time an unbreakable warrior. He almost had it. Glad it was a draw.
Who would have thought Moreno can give Figgy that kind of a fight. Props to him! I definitely enjoyed the fight and we definitely need to run it back. Figuerido vs. Moreno 2. For sure! Let's go!!!
Wow, what a performance! He proved himself tonight and shows how much humble and a badass he is!! Legendary moment
Mexican mclovin, really so damn tough, those shots he took plus all the unintentional ones. Big respect.
tony and brandon got hella heart
Except one can fight and the other is past their peak
Both got their Left arm jacked
@God First the only warrior i know i andy wang
He fought one hell of a fight respect to him for staying positive
Sin duda un orgullo para Tijuana y dejando en alto a México 👊👊🇲🇽
this guy's personality and character won me over in the vlogs
His combos, my goodness!
Julio César Chávez Style
I'm def a fan of Moreno after his performance tn that was crazy 🔥👊
Much love from Finland! Can't wait to see the rematch!
First fight I've seen from this guy, absolutely love his energy and fighting style, just seems like an all around good guy too
I love this dude. What a warrior. What an amazing fight to watch. It can be the fight of the year, I'm not sure but I'm bloody sure it's in the top 3.
@Ajay Tek69ashi I think it's the 3rd, after Joana vs Weili and Poirier vs Hooker but, clearly the best fight of the flyweight divison
JJ vs weili #1. Rewatch that NONSTOP War! Earns #1. Beautiful fight tho for Moreno/Figgy. Definitely up at the top for best of the yr.
Dude was so nice to figgy even tho he is dirty as hell. Moreno is the man
dude eyepokes and nut shots happen almost every fight. Figgy isn’t a dirty fighter.
@@olympischesboxenDE weird how it happened whenever figgy was in trouble. Everytime moreno took him down it looked like figgy was tryna take Morenos eyes home with him
@@olympischesboxenDE Yeah, fighters sometimes get poked *once* a fight. Figueiredo was trying to claw his eyes out and he kicked him in the balls full force
You gain My Respect. Still positive.
He is such a sweet heart ! So humble!
My new fav flyweight fighter
There is what I call a real Mexican dude has chin. In the remacth he will smoke. Deiveson
I thought he won the fight because of the point deduction
Deiveson can fight every round like the 5th and pick him apart on the outside to win a decision
Deiveson will beat him in the 2nd fight
@@thugnose7514 how can Davidson “pick him apart” like in 5th round where u can clearly see Moreno compromised with his left shoulder going into the 5th?
Mysterious Guy right, he deserved the win in the first fight. But if he had taken down Deiveson in the last round he would've guaranteed the win
I think ive never seen anybody so beat and bruised up, being so happy and positive
Moreno is such a Class Act! I'm looking forward to that rematch! Vamos Moreno! Viva Mexico!
A man with a warrior soul and the heart of an angel! You won, Moreno! Keep smiling man! ♥
Figgy was fighting dirty as hell
i don't think any of those were on purpose
@@crossovo fr
It was all accedental
@@crossovo yeah hes brazilian would never do it on purpose
@SadBoy Loko the fuck are you talking about?
fell in love with this dude during the faceoff when he gave fig the heart with his hands, between his personality and this fight he’s gotta be one of my new favorites
The smile on this kids face even in defeat even tho it wasn’t necessarily a loss he didn’t win the title he set out for. His smile alone makes him one of my new favorites. What an amazing fight.
"Ouchihuahua" Joe rogan
Jajaja, very witty stuff from Joe on the broadcast.
What a Nice and humble guy !! I’m a huge fan now !!
This guy is a true Rocky Character - God bless him and his family - hope he rests well this Christmas
Wow. Lost of words. New fan. Incredible

Amazing! Two absolute warriors a phenomenal battle. Wow! One of the best fights I’ve ever seen.
He deserves every bit of joe said to him what a great fight! Was rooting for this guy the whole way! You deserve a rematch💯
This was the first fight I’ve ever seen Moreno in, and I can say with certainty that I am now a big fan of him!
Same
Came into UFC 256 on the Figueriedo hypetrain, left UFC 256 on the Moreno Fanclub ❤️
I wish this guy the best. Never heard of him till this weekend. He got a new fan!
This kids got a bright future what a fight!
This kid deserved to win, very good guy. I'am rooting for you for the rematch.. good luck. Peace
It's been a long time since I can honestly say that this guy deserves to be champ pure positivity that's what we need from our UFC champions.
Moreno earned so many fight fans. What a fighter. Cheering personality.
Always liked Moreno! Im happy he is getting the recognition! I hope he gets that rematch and the belt!
haha, when he said he'll go back to the gym next week then basically said "oh hell, nah i gotta relax first.. tf was i thinking" 😆
I've been watching mma since the 90s an seriously this is 1 of the best fights I've Ever scene
one the first fights i’ve ever watched where i almost teared up.. this guys story and his character really pulls on the heart strings a little bit
What a good guy: All heart ❤️ brother. Puro Tijuana! He’s like I’ll be in the gym next week, no no I have to see my family haha
Dude that guy showed me an emense amount of effort wow
Such a humble guy. Very likeable. I'll be rooting for him from now own. He made me a fan of his today.
The champion of Humbleness and pure heart! May God bless you and your family. Praying for you for prompt recovery and looking forward to see you shining inside the Octagon.
I’m more shocked that he’s so happy after the draw
I mean.. everyone counted him out and he fought like a champ tonight. RUN IT BACK ASAP, DANA!!
@Damon Hargrave For me, I gave Moreno 3 and 4 but he was leading entering 5th round. due to Fig got a point deducted. 5th round was a very close until Fig got the late takedown. It's a draw for me, but had Morena not get taken down late, I would definitely say he wins.
