Brandon Moreno, Deiveson Figueiredo Set For Title Fight At Ufc 270

Figueiredo winning isn’t a very big upset but it’s difficult to pick against the champion. The prediction and pick are Brandon Moreno winning by decision after a hard-fought battle that tests both men. At UFC 270 Deiveson Figueiredo recaptured his flyweight title from the hands of Brandon Moreno in their trilogy fight. The duo had fought twice before heading into their trilogy fight. After winning the vacant flyweight title Deiveson Figueiredo made his first title defended against Alex Perez and won the fight in round one. This was the UFC’s fastest championship turnaround, at 21 days.
His weight cut appears to be going much better than in the last fight. With those questions out of the way, we can look at his path to victory. The Brazilian flyweight will need to come out strong but also be ready for deep waters. Figueiredo will need to stay active and prevent Moreno from taking the fight to the ground and sapping his cardio.



He missed weight in his first crack at the title against Joseph Benavidez. The cut down to 125 pounds is difficult, but he feels like he's figured it out.

The former flyweight champion reclaimed his throne with a unanimous decision win over Brandon Moreno in the co-main event of UFC 270 from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, on Saturday night. The co-main event of UFC 270 sees the trilogy fight between Brandon Moreno and Deiveson Figueiredo go down in what will most likely be the very last fight between them. The UFC flyweights fought to a draw in December 2020 and Brandon Moreno won by submission in June 2021. It’s safe to say they know each other very well and the third fight could very well be the most exciting fight between them.
Moreno landed some power punches while Figueiredo continued to chip away with leg kicks. Throw in some really fun scrambles and it was another difficult round to score. The two once again showed they can make for an electric matchup in the early going.
The result was different for the third consecutive time, though each of the three bouts were amazing. The first was a draw, allowing Figueiredo to keep the belt. Moreno took it from him in June by submitting the Brazilian with a rear naked choke. Moreno entered the fight as the champion and fought like one, keeping a quick pace and landing hard shots that wobbled Figueiredo several times. But Figueiredo stayed within himself, chopped at Moreno’s leg with hard calf kicks repeatedly, and dropped the champion several times. To reiterate, Moreno closed at +250 for the first fight, and oddsmakers opened him at +205 for the rematch — I thought Figueiredo had come close to converting his price, even without a finish.

Both fighters will come out swinging and land plenty of shots. Figueiredo is looking especially shredded coming into this fight, and he was considered the better overall fighter prior to the last matchup. Simply, he looks ready to make a point, and he will be landing plenty of shots early. If Moreno can stay the course, he clearly knows how to defeat Figueiredo later on.
The current Flyweight Champ has a slight favor with a record against the Brazilian “Daico”. However, that does not mean that “The Assassin Baby” is sure to win the third time around. And “The Assassin Baby” were feisty and highly reactive throughout the five rounds.
