Moreno has definitely improved since this fight, but many of you aren't mentioning how Pantoja has also improved as a fighter. Should be a great fight.
Many of them don't actually know Pantoja
2-0
hahaha what are you saying if I see the majority of comments saying what Pantoja has improved, let's see if before speaking we read and find out more 😂😂
Thanks Einstein, who would think somebody has improved in their craft over the yrs.
@@jayn6943 you’re probably right lol
3-0 Pantoja. He's truly Moreno's nemesis.
Le regalaron el campeonato despues de que Moreno lo destruyó y lo volvio a reconstruir
No the last bout Moreno won, he devastated him in my opinion, Pantoja only put takedowns that did nothing to Brandon, who refiled, elbows on guard, series of body-head blows, approaching elbows, jabs, hooks, etc etc
@@cdrmusicredibility9362 keep crying lmao he definitely lost. 3-0
"Maybe not today maybe not tomorrow but i will be champion" Brandon Moreno
The amount of improvement in Brandon’s game shows how much he’s grown. Should be a good matchup.
Both of them have improved.
The problem for Moreno is that Pantoja improved as well
2-0
Okay mctap fangirl 3-0 incoming 😂🐓
@@siviwetshuma5437 definitely true, should be a good matchup. As neither is the same fighter they were back on Tuf so much has changed.
Jesus that first uppercut by Moreno
this was one of the best fights TUFs ever had
Midgets. They weigh less than most women ffs
“Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow and maybe not the next month, but only one thing is true, I’ll be champion one day. I promise.” - Brandon Moreno❤️
Ill be shampion one day
Can y’all give pantoja some credit too? Everyone saying Moreno has evolved n this n that like pantoja hasn’t?
Moreno will loose again
@@LaForce1notdonelose*
@@TheBullyDisciple oui patron c'est une faute de frappe
@@LaForce1notdone don't let it happen again
Pendeja got his ass handed to him against Figuieredo while Moreno steam rolled him twice
“One part of your story right here” What inspirational words from Joe, and look how true it turned out to be. From this loss to world champion. This would come even more full circle if Moreno gets the win in their title fight.
Foreal 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Look how far Brandon has come

Just took 4 titleshots and Figueiredo to become old
@@NoName-th2hy he took his belt twice and arguably got robbed in the 3rd fight lmfao. And you're acting like figuereido wasn't dominating guys before he met Moreno lol
Moreno has evolved so much since this fight
So has Pantoja
It’s gonna be 3-0 tho
2-0
Who would think he's improved on his craft after yrs, no sh*t Sherlock. 🤡
@@TheBullyDisciple Note the term "so much"🤡
You can tell Henry felt really bad for not picking Brandon to be on his team. He even said he would've been a little happier if Brandon won even though he was on the opposite team.
He did it on purpose
@@J.A.G331How So?
@@J.A.G331 no he didn’t lol he wanted Moreno on his team too
He's a traitor. He could've picked him and he did not. He's praying for Pantoja or Figgy to ruin his career, legacy, and life. Henry is a crazy person
@@pokemonovice9758 💀
Moreno has come so far since this fight. I hope he wins!
U casuals all say the same sh*t, no sh*t both have improved since fighting years ago.
He lost again to Pantoja but yes
I’m rooting for pantoja 🤷🏾♂️
Yeah you hope mate😅
3-0 is crazy
3-0 INCOMING
Pantoja chegou sua hora de ser campeão pra cima ❤️🔥🥇
Pantoja é brabo demais. Futuro campeão
Ele conseguiu 🔥 🔥
This aged well
Probably one of the best things that could’ve happened to Brandon. I know he took the pain he felt during that loss and used it to go even harder in training. And now he’s the champ 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
But won't be after Sunsay
@@jericho-tube we’ll see.
Not more
It was
Marcelo moreno freguês de brasileiro
Even with the amount of improvement Brandon has had, I feel like Alexander is a monster, he was back then and has probably improved so much, I think he will take the belt
i’m on the same boat too. sucks bc i like moreno a lot, but 2 wins over moreno will already play a huge factor in the 3rd. there’s a lot of pressure, and pantoja already has so much knowledge of this fighter
Nah Brandon all day he will prevail time will tell! 🐲🐲🐲 SI SE PUEDE 🦾
It’s up in the air really
Why’d he fucked up by figgy then
@@coffeeyouuno, no se puede
Que luta, caraca 😤🇧🇷🥊 Pantoja 🔥
He also has a decision win over Moreno. 2-0
No body talking about how pantoja beat him. He beat him both times cause Brandon couldn’t get going and handle the constant pressure. Gonna be the same. He’s not gonna give him room to work. Yeah Brandon got better but EVERYONE is sleeping on pantoja cause he got better too
My favorite season. They should run this concept back for sure.
Can't wait for UFC 290.These 2 guys got me more hyped up than Volk vs Yair. Moreno vs Pantoja 2 is the main event for me.
And the new... Pantoja is a monster!
The fight for the title in their current forms now gonna be real intersecting 🔥🔥🔥
Crazy fight, can’t believe I haven’t seen it yet!
What a great fight DAMN, tuf really did used to be so good with great display of skill from both fighters
"The other guy" wins again
Even though he lost, you could tell Moreno had SOMETHING about him. This was the last season of TUF I watched live and I remember being impressed with his boxing for someone with BJJ credentials. First round he was throwing some excellent combos for his level of experience. I’m his first UFC run he started training with Duane Ludwig and he tried to make him fight a style that didn’t really fit him hence him getting pieced up by Pettis and struggling on the feet vs Pantoja as well in their second fight. But when he left UFC he focused on his real strength on the feet which has always been his boxing and it paid dividends. Now he’s refined enough that he can properly incorporate kickboxing into his game too and as we have seen he now has a solid kicking game too even though its unorthodox
جولة كثيرة💪💪
I honestly can't wait for this fight man. Hell yeah two weeks
What a fight.. Excited for the rematch. May the best man win.
Já teve a revanche.. essa será a terceira luta
Execução excelente 👊🇧🇷
Soupa de macaco Brasil #1🙈🇧🇷
Estubo intensa la pelea
THat was two dogs in that cage from the start! wow incredible careers they both had thus far!
Moreno improved, but Pantoja improved too and also beat him again
Pantoja luta muito bem. Vai vencer pela terceira vez o Brandon Moreno que também e um ótimo lutador. 🤛🤛🤛👊👊👊👊👊👏👏💯💯👍👍 Nocaute Pantoja.🆗🆗🆗🆗
Lucky Brandon never gave up…Look at him now..👍🏽 Mexico 🇲🇽
Pantoja is an animal in there
That thumbnail is so goated
that takedown was cleeeeean tho, respect to the other guy
Cejudo se notaba legítimamente triste, es triste ver todo el odio que ganó sabiendo que en el fondo es buena persona y que si quería a su amigo Moreno, tambien sufrió la derrota. 😢
Visto essa luta no TUF , 3x0 Pantoja irmão , que venha o Royval
Pantoja will Win 3 times, Pantoja will finishes again with jiu jitsu in third fight...
This is the skill level of top 5 heavyweight s
Eles tiveram caminhos diferentes. Moreno teve mais sorte. Evoluiu e conseguiu crescer. Já Pantoja teve menos sorte suas lesões acabaram lhe tirando de lutas importantes e se afastando do cinturão. Lesionado, fora de forma teve que trabalhar até de UBER para se sustentar nos Estados Unidos. Mas consegui se reenguer e tem grande chance de levar o cinturão.
what a stud pantoja is man
Both are great Latin fighters 🇧🇷🇲🇽 but I'm rooting this time for Pantoja. Brazil gotta back UFC belt
Epic fight !
What a fight
Who is here after that absolute war at 290?
Great fights... This TUF which sent Moreno home. Cejudo & the opposite coach both said highly sought comments about him & boy did he learn from this & come back. Pantoja went onto win the rematch & if I'm honest does look like he's got Moreno's number. However This IS where Moreno shines !! My heart says Moreno, my head says Pantoja. C'mon 🙌 Baby Assassin 💪
Exelente paliza al moreno 🎉🎉🎉 la mejor paliza
Todos torcendo para o moreno, mas esqueceram que aqui é Brasil 🇧🇷 Alexandre Pantoja, guerreiro brasileiro
What a wild fight!
Started the meet at the beginning of thier careers. Now they are facing in a title fight against each other.
OMG WHAT A GREAT FIGHT
Where’s my puppy troll at ? Come here boy ! Come on bark for daddy let me know you here boy .
2:26 ¡MORTAL KOMBAT! Nation against nation 🔥
Pantoja siempre le ganará a Moreno. es su gallo.
Holy fuck what a war. Can't wait for the rematch
There is interesting fight. Both fighters were ending punching strength. They were finding source of opponent fighters strength.
I love pantoja ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Tenía 22 años ahí el Brandon.
Such a baised video.....no one is celebrating for pantoja for all the skills he showed... I am very happy he is the champion right now
Man watching a fight without commentary is so much more enjoyable. Mike Goldberg made it much less irritating.
wow this version of pantoja was honestly pretty bad, its crazy how good he is now and sadly moreno looked better here but eventually lost and sense they both made it into the ufc pantoja kept evolving so much moreno could not handle him the second fight and imo i dont see anything changing in their third match.
Uncle Dana looking like Brian Shaw over here.
Basically, their upcoming fight is actually a Trilogy (including this one).
Great fight, the better fighter won
Not gonna be the same 😂 brandons a new beast now
They both improved
Yeah, he's lost by decision now, It wasn't the same
this is still such a close fight pantoja cant be clinging onto this moreno was nasty on the feet and counters
They actually fought again and pantoja won pretty dominantly
@@bebop355 he looked bad brood pantoja pressure. He doesn’t give him room to work. Look at when Brandon fought Kai. He was getting pieced up until he gave him room
Great 💜❤️💜
رائع
💪💪
Ahora entiendo por qué moreno perdio la tercera le supo encontrar el ritmo a moreno y el clinch Pantoja es muy fuerte en corazón ganó moreno pero en pelea sinceramente siempre ha Sido mas completo Pantoja me hubiera gustado que ganara la de campeonato pero ni modo ese corazón de guerrero no lo tiene mas que khavib
This was a fist for fist battle, I hit you, you hit me, My me moe, hit mah hi, ti mo mah
Deportistas no hay enemigo pequeno tienes que preparate no importa que
Is it just me or? I've never seen Pantoja after this match 😅
He took a long lay off and recently came back and got a pretty dominant win. Guys good I don’t get why everyone trying to write him off
The first one was a complete brawl til the finish the second is gonna be a chess match now in my opinion 👏
They have fought twice already
Pantoja beat the shit out of him in the second fight
And new!!!
Brandon haVE a Great warrior golden heart . I trust he can take the W
Brandon tienes que cambiar de entrenador...y tienes q evolucionar y tenés los golpes natos
Joe B a good dude
Everybody is mentioning how much Moreno has improved since then, which he has, but even back then his striking was slick!
The Mexican getting RAWDOGGG again
Pantoja has his number. Sorry guys moreno will have a tough time.
Brandon had no defense back in this fight. His grappling def, his high guard and his ability to skip and punch in the pocket had greatly improved. Pumped to see Brandon get his redemption
0-3
His takedown defense still sucks
Redemption my @ss
3-0 pantoja is simply the best among the two
Good 🙂👍👍👍
Not yet
They both improved so much it will look like an entirely different fight. I got Brandon by 3rd round tko
Welp🤷🏾♂️
Thing is marano has hit like 2-3 levels since..
so has pantoja, won’t stop him from taking the belt from moreno
Still lost
3-0
„I Hit you, you Hate me, I hate you, you Hit me“
how did Moreno look better losing than Pantoja did winning
yea it was clear who was the better fighter back then pantoja looked bad but he seem to have good submission skill, his stand up on the other hand wild and not very effective at times. but todays pantoja and even in their second fight shows how damn quickly he improved as a fighter.
Brandon couldn’t get his rhythm cause of pantojas pressure
I don't think Pantoja cares about How did he look in that fight on your opinion, he's got the W and the belt
Royval vs Moreno: the battle of Pantoja’s children
Wow
8 years guys dont compare the past to now
Dana looking thick here
