The upcoming UFC 283 tournament in Brazil will host light heavyweights Deiveson Figueiredo and Brandon Moreno. The co-main event of UFC 283 will be a flyweight clash between featherweights Deiveson Figueiredo and Brandon Moreno. This will be the fourth time the fighters have faced each other in a title fight, and so far the head-to-head scorecard is even. The fight is planned for 04:00 UK time.
The Mexican is moving actively and combines his jab with wrestling perfectly. We have to admit that Figueiredo is the most uncomfortable opponent, who can be a pain in the ass throughout the fight.
We will still assume that Brandon can win the decisive fight in this clash, and his great belief in himself and versatile skill set will help him do so.
“God of War” Deiveson Figueiredo was able to regain his title at 125 lbs in January 2022. The Brazilian was smart in his third clash against Moreno, where he was able to outbox him in the stand-up, sending the Mexican to several knockdowns. Still, the fight again came out close and competitive.
The South American must have been fed up with Brandon by now, as he will be sharing the octagon with him for the fourth time in a row. In all, the 35-year-old has 21 wins, two losses and one draw in his professional career. When Deiveson has no weightlifting problems and approaches the fight in optimum form, he is a fearsome fighter in every respect. He has impressive knockout power in every punch, great timing, speed and footwork. The fighter also often employs his grappling skills.
The Mexican became the interim light-middleweight champion of the organization when he stopped Kaya Cara-France by TKO in the 3-rd round. The fighter landed a spectacular mid-kick to the liver that caused that organ to spasm violently, resulting in an instant surrender of his opponent.
“The Assassin Baby” is considerably younger than Deiveson. This is his main advantage over his main rival. Brandon also has a much easier time losing weight. During his career, he scored 20 wins, suffered six losses and had to settle for two draws.
Moreno has an unorthodox style in his standup, preferring to work in a versatile way, throwing a huge amount of punches. There is not as much knockout power in them as there is in Figueiredo’s, but the accuracy and efficiency are top-notch. The Mexican is also very good at taking take-downs which enables him to escape in difficult situations.
