Brandon Moreno— Nathan Diaz (@NateDiaz209) December 13, 2020
Crazy to think that Moreno was cut from the UFC at one point. Glad he is back he is definitely one of my favorites. #ufc256

A lot of us are talking about this being Fight of the Year but we should also be talking about Deiveson Figueiredo being Fighter of the Year. Even though this was a draw, he still walked away with the title after a record breaking 2020.#UFC254

Figueiredo vs Moreno. FOTY
Kevin Holland fighter of the year!— GILBERT BURNS DURINHO (@GilbertDurinho) December 13, 2020
Flyweights make me wanna be better. You always see the craziest technical striking Match ups and the most batshit scrambles. How’s about a rematch where they can prep for more than 2 weeks! #UFC256

That could very well be FOTY #UFC256

I’m not trying to be a bandwagon fan. But Brandon Moreno is 100 percent one of my favorite fighters. Absolute dog off the leash. I personally thought he won. But I’ll watch both of those dudes fights 365 days of the year.
