Brandon Moreno’s current situation in the UFC isn’t the best, as the former UFC flyweight world champion has fallen to eighth place in the division’s rankings after winning only 2 of his last 6 fights. Despite being a well-known fighter, the Mexican fighter will be competing in a Fight Night event for the first time in his career, so a solid debut is key. The good news for Moreno is that he tends to go the distance, as 8 of his last 10 fights in the organization went the distance.
A knee injury and a loss in his debut against his compatriot Shelton kept Joseph Morales away from the UFC for a while; however, since his return, he has secured two wins in the organization and built a four-fight winning streak. The California native is a fairly technical fighter who tends to win his fights by wearing down his opponents, as seen in three of his last five bouts, which went the distance; however, his lack of experience could cost him dearly.
Despite his excellent form, Joseph Morales has relatively little experience in the UFC, while his opponent is a former champion who is more seasoned in the art of wearing down his opponents.

Our Brandon Moreno vs Joseph Morales Prediction
Brandon Moreno knows that failing to halt his downward spiral could knock him out of the top 8 in the flyweight division; the good news is that, despite his poor form, he tends to take fights to the final round, as we’ve seen in 8 of his last 10 UFC bouts.
For his part, Joseph Morales appears to have recovered well from his injury; however, he has never faced a former champion in the division and may find his grappling limited by Moreno’s solid defense.
