Brandon Moreno didn\u2019t just leave Noche UFC with another win on his record. After taking care of Joseph Morales in front of a loud Mexican crowd in Arizona, the former UFC champion made it clear he still sees himself sitting at the top of the flyweight division, belt or no belt.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m just throwing a statement like, I\u2019m the best flyweight in the world. If you believe in that or not I don\u2019t care, that\u2019s not my problem,\u201d Moreno told Cageside Press among other reporters at his post-fight scrum.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have to believe in myself, and I have to believe I\u2019m the best f*cking flyweight of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
Moreno felt like he had done more than enough to get his hand raised, but hearing one judge score the fight for Morales gave him a quick scare. Given his history with close decisions, he admitted there was a moment where he wondered if things were about to go sideways again.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have really bad experience with decisions. Sometimes when I finish a fight and I\u2019m going to the decision with the judges. I\u2019m trying to be very honest with myself. I said like maybe this fight is kind of weird. I understand maybe I can lose, you know,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn this one I finish and I felt super confident I got the victory, but then the judge say 29-28 to Morales. I was like, \u2018What the f*****ck?\u201d. Then the other judges say 30-27, and (I was like) ok now I feel more confident. Yeah man, I was a little scared.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTonight was amazing. Was the same as 2021 when I won the title. This time, again, all the people supporting me every single time. Screaming my name. The only thing I can say is thank you,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you because I feel the love tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n
