The <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/mma\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>UFC<\/a> returns to one of its most passionate markets with a main event featuring a hometown hero. Brandon &lsquo;The Assassin Baby&rsquo; Moreno takes on Australia&rsquo;s Steve Erceg in a flyweight clash that could reshape the division&rsquo;s landscape. The Arena Ciudad de Mexico will be rocking as fans rally behind Mexico&rsquo;s first-ever UFC champion!<\/p><p>These two fighters find themselves at very different points in their careers. Moreno stands as a battle-tested veteran with championship pedigree, having held UFC gold multiple times. Erceg represents the division&rsquo;s new blood. He is a talented Australian who quickly rose through the ranks but has hit recent turbulence with back-to-back losses. Both men are desperate for a win to solidify their standing in the flyweight hierarchy.<\/p><p>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/alex-pereira-embodies-the-champions-heart-refuses-injury-excuse-for-title-loss-against-magomed-ankalaev\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Alex Pereira Embodies The Champion&rsquo;s Heart, Refuses Injury Excuse For Title Loss Against Magomed Ankalaev!<\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brandon Moreno&rsquo;s MMA Journey<\/h2><p>Brandon Moreno&rsquo;s path to UFC stardom is epic. The Tijuana native started training MMA after failing to find a capoeira school in his hometown. He turned pro in 2011 and fought his way through regional promotions before earning a spot on The Ultimate Fighter in 2016. Despite losing on the show, the UFC signed him anyway. In a remarkable twist, Moreno made his UFC debut while his season was still airing on television.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Watching Brandon Moreno win the belt on loop so that I can experience feelings <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/vIIYcgeQxp\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/vIIYcgeQxp<\/a><\/p>&mdash; The Filthy Casual (@MMAfilthycasual) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MMAfilthycasual\/status\/1676598162159435776?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>July 5, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Moreno&rsquo;s career has been defined by resilience and perseverance. After an initial 3-2 UFC run, he was surprisingly cut from the promotion in 2018. Rather than give up, he captured the Legacy Fighting Alliance flyweight title and earned his way back to the UFC. His career reached new heights in his epic four-fight series with Deiveson Figueiredo (this was the first tetralogy in the UFC). This saw Moreno become Mexico&rsquo;s first UFC champion when he submitted Figueiredo at UFC 263.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Though he lost the belt to Alexandre Pantoja in 2023, Moreno has remained a top contender. His most recent outing saw him outpoint Amir Albazi last November, keeping him firmly in the title picture. At 31, Moreno brings a wealth of experience with nearly a decade in the UFC and multiple championship fights on his resume.<\/p><p><strong>Brandon Moreno MMA Record<\/strong><\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>32 Fights<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Win<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Loss<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>By KO\/TKO<\/strong><\/td><td>5<\/td><td>0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>By Submission<\/strong><\/td><td>11<\/td><td>0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>By Decision<\/strong><\/td><td>6<\/td><td>8<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><p>*Moreno&rsquo;s record also has 2 fights that have been a draw<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Steve Erceg&rsquo;s MMA Journey<\/h2><p>Steve Erceg represents the new wave of Australian MMA talent following the country&rsquo;s fighting pioneers.

He upset David Dvorak in his debut and followed with victories over Alessandro Costa and Matt Schnell, with the latter earning him a Performance of the Night bonus. His rapid ascent earned him a surprise title shot against Alexandre Pantoja just three fights into his UFC career.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Though he fell short against the champion, he performed admirably. His momentum took another hit when he lost via first-round knockout to Kai Kara-France last August.

I was instantly hooked on MMA after watching the fight between Lyoto Machida vs. Gegard Mousasi back in 2014, and since then, i have been an avid writer with a deep love for the sport and its techniques, providing readers with a thorough understanding of the sport. My favorite aspect of working at The Playoffs is the creative freedom it provides. The diverse range of topics, from listicles and SEO to news articles, keeps me engaged and motivates me to continuously improve my skills! I aim to capture the excitement of the combat sports world in my writing, acting as the middleman between fighters and their die-hard fans. It is kind of like a referee, but with words!","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/zaid-quraishi-884927240?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=android_app"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/zaid\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34424"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/14"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34424"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34424\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":34527,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34424\/revisions\/34527"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34428"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34424"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34424"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34424"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
