#UFC #UFC277
The fact that he keeps in the back of his mind that he needs to be an example for his kids at all times as a professional and humble person speaks volumes about his character.
I respect him for that at the end of the day he has a family he has to feed this is more than just a paycheck to him
Yes sir. He's the man. He's the perfect champion that the UFC NEEDS!!! And all of America and Mexico has his back!!
👋
Agreed but it would’ve been 10x better for business if Moreno slapped him as soon as he walked up to him
Real Mexicans we are that way.
I thought this was gonna turn nasty when Davison walked in but I'm so happy it turned into something positive instead. Legendary gentlemen. Thank you.
🔥
100 percent. I personally really enjoy when these two guys are respectful with each other
To Figgy's credit, he always seemed nice. He always dapped up Brandon, and raised his hand in the 2nd fight.
Moreno kept it controlled he tried to be as much respectful as he could and I give him props for that !
That is because it is staged. No way they let him just walk in without prior notice. No way .
Wow Moreno almost made me weep when he said: I forgive you plz forgive me, but don't be confused, i wanna fight, let's fight. Then he gave him his hand. What a class act.
A man's man. Straight and too the point without being disrespectful.
What happened again that they needed to forgive each other?
@@lcglazer just a lot of shittalking from figgy leading up to all their fights
Cringe
@@TGGManDa if it was just from figgy why did Moreno ask for forgiveness?
Anyone who says they're tired of Moreno and Figgy have no love for this sport. It's the best rivalry ever. Love watching these dudes go at it. Both of them deserve the title.
MEXICO 🇲🇽 VS BRAZIL 🇧🇷
Reminds me a lot of pacquiao vs Marquez
Hands down one of the best rivalries ever. Also both have the upmost respect for each other. True warriors I’m a big fan of both.
We don't really need a 4th fight
@@Alex-tw8nb We didn't need another Holloway/Volk either but when people have re-earned their title shots they should get them. This is also as even as it gets regarding a rivalry. We 1-1 with a draw.

Love how the crowd ate their boos after Fig’s comment. These guys are putting on crazy fights for our entertainment. This might be the greatest post-fight interview next to Paddy’s. What a sport!
This shows how used to trash talking they have become. They just assumed that that Deivison was being rude. It didn't even cross their mind to wonder
It’s just the pro wrestling part of the UFC, only dumb fighters take it personally.
Its not just for our entertainment. Its for money for their pockets
Mcgregors is the best by a country mile. Followed by Chael sonnen
@@stevjohnson3681 Agreed.
There’s absolutely no way that this rivalry doesn’t go into the Hall of Fame after these two retire. 3 stellar fights (so far). Two equal and dominant skillsets. Brandon Moreno - Last pick on TUF, eliminated first, cut from the company, first ever Mexican-born UFC champ. First quadrilogy in UFC history. Resurrecting a dying division.
One of the greatest post fight interviews I've ever seen in UFC

I love how he was gonna put up a show at first, but showed respect as soon as moreno showed his.
@@fiveleft63 agreed u can tell figgy is just doing it for show but I’m glad he broke character after he shows him respect
Deyverson***
I remember a few years ago he had a fight and after it Moreno said something like "maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but someday I will be champion". He was right. He is just a very, very impressive person.
That was his fight against Luis Schmolka in which he surprised everybody. I was an instant fan after that
thats how i found out who he was
He did won indisbuted belt against figuerido by submission before
This is what's up. Never gets old seeing sportsmanship and class amongst elite fighters. UFC needs more of this, and we've been seeing it more frequently lately. Legendary Octagon interview right here.
It was only sportsmanship because moreno made it that way and fig had no choice but to play along. Fig is a bit of a try hard
Meh, I thought this whole thing was kinda cringe. And I'm generally one who is down with the sportsmanship and good conduct. But it was all WWE style hype with him making his way to the cage and then getting in the octagon and Moreno is just rambling on and on. Was weird. Happy for Moreno though.
@@chutcentral bruh it's a real sport where fighters can be sincere about how they carry themselves. If you want a show, SummerSlam is on tonight

What a moment for the Flyweight Division 🏆
We are hero to stay
These guys already have one of the best rivalries in MMA and now they have one of the most iconic post-fight interviews!
Epic rivalry. Go Figuredo😡😡😡😡😡
Nearly started crying in buffalo wild wings when he won. Let's go Moreno!! 🇲🇽
Those wings must be really spicy
Cheers bro
why?
@@VvvnimaL the first MMA fight I ever saw was figgy Moreno 1, and I was so awestruck by his scrappiness and heart, that it made me a fan of the sport, even though it was a draw. So I have a soft spot for Moreno.
@@NoFapKing 🤣🤣🤣prolly rubbed his eyes wit the sauce too
“Let’s go, I don’t care I’m ready. Vamos pa Brazil.” That gave me chills
This is one of the best memories UFC has given. I love the respect and love these guys show each other.
Big ups to the security for letting Deiveson in the octagon. What a legendary moment!
Big ups how? Let the dude have his shine. It's not the WWE. Man could have given a post-fight speech about his win, thanked his team and family and instead it was overshadowed by him immediately having to respond to a potential threat and challenge. He handled it graciously, but this wasn’t the time or place.
@@K4ZUY4MISHM4 I agree it felt a little "this could become a WWF cringeworthy moment" ... but Moreno called out for the cameras to find Deiverson. He could've just said the name and slid on past. I could've done without it and it should have been Moreno's moment only... but invite the guy in,... the guy needs to step in.
@@McLeod2022 nah the champ stepping in made this moment even special. To get the affirmation from the champ to say that Brandon is worthy and deserving to be interim champ was beautiful and to squash the bad blood was even better. It was legendary because two of the best put their belts down on the line knowing the show these guys can put on is insane. And the trilogy justifies this moment even more.
@@K4ZUY4MISHM4 wym Moreno called him out not the other way around lol
It's not the security decision to let someone in, you can notice gatekeeper was waiting for the okay through his ear piece while security for Figgy was wanting in immediately. This is all played out for propaganda to hype up the next fight.
Class pure class from both of them. The whole World could learn a lot from this exchange. Epic moment!
Game recognizes game😁
When you come from nothing at all then you hit greatness and stay humble you win over many many fans Brandon Moreno you will live forever hermano te mereces tu triunfo carnal que dios te bendiga en tu camino 🙏🏽
Shed a tear to his speech, you are a king Brandon 🫡👑
With the way Figgy came into the octagon holding his belt up in front of Moreno, I think he was planning on putting on a show. I love the humbleness Moreno brought, and how he said he wants to set an example for his daughter. That's a highly skilled, humble killer right there. Moments like these are way more appreciated than all the WWE wannabe crap that we've been seeing for years now, in opinion anyways. I'd like to see Moreno re-capture that gold again. It's going to be a war.
Long ass paragraph
@scottiye 😂😂
You bet my man. It was great !
I agree 👊👊
you know he dont speak english he just heard his name so he probably thought he got called out
Figgy wanted to put on intensity then he got shutdown by the power of 💕 love 😂😂😂
That hit me hard when they made peace like that. So many great men are held back by their own bitterness and anger these days. It's so good to see people squash their pride and respect one another.
He’s the coolest dude in the UFC. Even while flustered he keeps it real! Real Champ
One of the best post fight interviews I’ve seen, much respect for both fighters
Kai handled this loss with a lot of class. I'll be interested to see how he does going forward.

The honest and genuine respect between Moreno and Figueiredo is simply beautiful. Figueiredo doesn’t even try to rush Brandon to fight any earlier. How can’t you love this rivalry?
Brandon Moreno es el ejemplo de que dentro de la jaula es una bestia, pero terminada la pelea es un caballero. De eso se trata el deporte.
This is what Martial is about: respect! Figgy was ready to play the heel again haha but as soon as Moreno put his hand forward, Deivison gave an example of a Champ with his speech. Both of them gave a great example of Champion behaviour, this is how all champs should carry themselves.
How can you not love that dude!! Man he’s the true embodiment of a champion congratulations Moreno!!
I love Brandon. Such a light being, no one is perfect but what an amazing human he is
Momento lindo! Parabéns à maturidade e respeito entre esses 2 grandes atletas que só faz crescer o esporte! Mais uma vez, parabéns aos 2

I can’t wait for the first ever quadriology in UFC history! It’s gonna be amazing to see our best flyweights at present go at it again🎉🙏
Ufc better make it a main event for a ppv and not a co main event. Put some respect on these two first ever quadrilogy in ufc history better be a main event

The fact that he is man enough to be forgiving and be the first to initiate that is great! So many people have trouble doing that and being genuine. He really is my favorite MMA fighter right now.
That was a powerful moment in many ways. God Bless Brandon M and DF.
I thought this was gonna be a “these things happen in mma” moment but turned into pure class on both ends
That was one of the most brutal liver kicks I've watched
What a great performance and honor from Brandon!! Both great fighters
This man is a humble one ..rare in ufc..keep up bro. You're such a great man, continue to be an example to all ufc athlete..humble and sportsman.
There is nothing that melts my heart and brims my face with a smile more than seeing opponents showing genuine respect after a fight.
I haven't Admired, someone like Brandon Moreno in a long, long time. He's like a Super Hero to millions and specially to me, I love you man. You are a inspiration to all people.
The humbleness he presents him self with is un matched Brandon you are an example for everyone to follow man. Blessings and congratulations carnal !!
Respect to Kai too. Warrior. Him and Brandon are all class
It's been said before- these two are destined to fight each other forever and I'm here for it.
These guys could fight every month for me. The quality of their skills, the heart and guts they show. Now the class and respect they display.
Brandon is a humble warrior, have mad respect to him and fighters like Charles Olivera. These dudes have nothing but respect for the fight game, and their character shows after big wins like this him being able to look at Davidson in the eye and say what he did. Excellent example of a humble beast
Seeing this is like seeing an amazing journey, I started training mma before covid and fell in love with it specially in my hometown which where brandon moreno is from Tijuana, lockdown came I couldnt train i was so desperate and did what I learned from home then went to washington to work for a long time, I got to see brandon moreno fight davidson and that fight was badass, my cousins where doubting him but I was rooting for moreno deep in my heart, then the 2nd fight came, we all know how that went, I jumped all over the place while my cousins where in schock, finally I came back to Tijuana to train mma again but this time at entram, got to learn new things it was so fun, the best gym, then I met the legend himself took a pic and the following days I would see him very often, my friends that I made there invited me to see his title defense at a bar, we were all screaming, when he lost we were all sad but still support him, now he came with this win and seeing this 2 face to face about to make the first 4th fight, makes me look back at this almost 2 year journey of brandon moreno being the character he is which a lot of people in Tijuana my age and myself can relate to gives me goosbumps
One of the best post fight interviews I've ever seen. Nice one gentlemen. Great job Moreno!!!!
Heart of a warrior. Nothing but respect. Champions inside and outside the octagon.

Lots of respect for Moreno, stand up guy, humble and thankful. 🥊🇲🇽
Brandon Moreno is my favorite fighter in the game. I live in Lees Summit where his new camp is, and ran into him at Target with his family. Tried so hard not to fanboy uncontrollably, but he was just so humble and welcoming. He deserves it!
Awesome man, just what I'd expect 😊
I met brandon here in mexico at a bjj class when he was just a humble blue belt. I was just starting and he quickly realized that and didint rag doll me lol.

Dana needs to pay both these guys the money they want! Everytime Brandon fights people love him and go crazy for him! These two have put on three great fights!
Fascinating. Figuerado came in with the antagonistic energy. But Moreno just being such a great guy shut all of that down. Got Davison to act like a man worthy of respect. Amazing moment.
