Brandon Moreno, the talented UFC flyweight fighter, has responded to Henry Cejudo’s interest in moving back to the flyweight division for a potential fight between the two. Cejudo, a former champion in both the flyweight and bantamweight divisions, expressed his desire to compete at 125 pounds once again. Despite Cejudo mentioning Moreno as a potential opponent, Moreno made it clear that he is not interested in engaging in a war of words with him at the moment.
In an interview with MMA Junkie, Moreno hinted at the animosity between him and Cejudo, stating, “It’s no secret we don’t like each other.” While Moreno expressed a desire to face Cejudo in the octagon, he emphasized that he is currently focused on his upcoming fight against Amir Albazi. Moreno seems unimpressed by Cejudo’s attempts to garner attention and remains unfazed by the former champion’s words.
Following a break from the sport due to mental fatigue, Moreno is determined to make a strong comeback. His match against Albazi in the main event of an upcoming UFC Fight Night signifies his return to competitive action. Despite setbacks against opponents like Alexandre Pantoja and Brandon Royval, Moreno remains resolute in his goal of reclaiming the UFC flyweight title.
As Moreno prepares for his fight in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, he remains optimistic about his prospects in the UFC. He acknowledges the challenges he has faced in the past but believes in his ability to overcome them. With a renewed sense of purpose and determination, Moreno is poised to make a significant impact in the flyweight division. While Cejudo may be seeking attention with his comments, Moreno is focused on his own journey back to the top of the UFC flyweight rankings.
