Honestly, can't even fault Figueiredo here, only so much you can do seeing out of one eye. Good stoppage by the doctor. Moreno proves again why he's an absolute beast.
it was Herb Dean fault when someone got eye poked or nut shot Herb Dean should pause fight to check on his eye it's like Herb Dean let Brandon brush up Deivson????? you think that's fair????
@Kathryn Whitbeck Really easy explanation. Figueiredo could continue and there's a good chance he could lose his eye. If your eye is already gone there's not much point worrying about it. We try to learn from past mistakes. Understand now?
@y.lworld It won't do any good. He approached all of his fights with the same strategy. His style is to land a big punch or get a choke. If either of those doesn't happen, he's done!
He needs to work on his defense. He engages with both hands down. In my opinion that is why punched in the eye. If he wants to be a striker he should work on his boxing technique and defense.
The fact that Glover had to ask the Brazilian fans not to throw stuff at Hill after his just shows how bad that crowd is. Props to Figgy: It's a shame it ended the way it did.
@David Willian You just described not being perfect, which is fine. But I understand completely, you don’t respect them as a person. But you have to respect them as a fighter
@Akiko Tsuji chael was a clown who walked the streets thinking he was the champion but the champion was anderson silva he hit the fight and then lied colby is a pervert and arrogant anyone who knows him closely knows that he being a pervert on polyana and there is no respect for nobody changed who was his essence for money a guy like that doesn't have my respect
@EROZAKY pues si carnal pero nosotros también vamos a los estadios a gritar p*t0 o incluso a armar desastres como el del Querétaro VS Atlas pero eso no quiere decir que todos los mexicanos seamos malos, esa banda no representa a un país
Porque respeto a los brasileños? No viste lo que ese basurero lleno de animales le hizo a Moreno? Lo sacaron con pura basura, y al pobre de Glover lo abandonaron en el momento final de su carrera
I hate that the fight had to end like that, but it was a great stoppage by the DR. The last thing you want to to have a fighter get serious injured if it can be avoided. Great job by both fighters, they are both champions in my book!
I'd agree, then again I remembered that there was also this British champion in the middle weight division by the name of "One Eyed Baby Boy" Michael M.F Bisping.
@KD Clutcho not much really, he basically said it's time to fight in another division; said it's Moreno time to shine, said it was his night and some things about representing poor young brazilians
🇲🇽🤝🏻🇧🇷 Eu sou mexicano mas meus respeitos aos meus irmãos brasileiros vocês também são guerreiros e lutam todos os dias admiro muito sua fé em nosso senhor Jesus
Os dois são valentes, já mostraram que são guerreiros, o Figueiredo já havia derrotado o Brandon e hoje perdeu, mas continua ótimo, são seres humanos, ninguém é melhor que ninguém e tudo pode acontecer em uma luta.
Não acredito que a torcida brasileira se comporte assim universalmente, estou decepcionado com a falta de respeito contra aos lutadores vencedores; uma das coisas que as pessoas precisam aprender é como perder com honra e integridade. Figuereido perdeu com a honra intacta, parabéns a Brandon Moreno pela vitória. Espero que a torcida brasileira possa melhorar sua demonstração de respeito e humildade mesmo na derrota como na vitoria, e infelizmente traz grande vergonha para o povo brasileiro uando eles não são capazes de perder com graça, um perdedor dolorido torna uma pessoa dolorida.
Tonight was Brandon night i can't say that was an eye poke i felt the punch and unfortunately my eyes shut down, i don't know if is a serious injury i just hope god protects me and i don't lose my vision, but thank you for the fans, tonight wasn't my night was Brandon night congrats to him. Guys i will say again i fought for the youngers in Brazil who dream been here one day, never give up your dreams i made my history in 125lbs, like Jose Aldo "i'm your fan bro, a lot respect", i made my history but i'm going 135lbs because in 125lbs i get so ugly, haha. Not 100% but more precise than you guys heard 👍👊
@PigDaddy2020 The guy on TV definitely didnt do a good job, hell he made it sound like Figueredo said it was a poke, but he is under pressure, doing it live and Figueredo was ranting a little bit, you saw DC pulling the mic away.
Brazil outta be ashamed of itself for the way they acted. Even in the Glover n Hill fight, they all left beforethe end too congratulate the winner knowing it was going to be Hill. Absolutely shocking
Norte americanos falando bosta de outros países, esperar o que desse povo. Único país que recorreu à bombas atômicas pra depois ficar com medinho da Russia.
He was losing the fight no doubt. But props to the god of war. He was a dominant champ. And still a dominant contender. He should move up. That power with added weight. Dangerous. Bless figgy and his rein but there's a new king of the flyweight division and his name is Brandon Moreno 🇲🇽
@N4NURFKNB1NESS Nothing delusional about factual statements. It's a fact Figgy would've won that fight without the point deduction and it's a fact he has more defenses than everyone else except Demetrious Johnson.
Deiveison lo hizo bien, pero brandom lo hizo mucho mejor, si hubiera continuado el siguiente round tal vez hubiese quedado en pésimas condiciones el brasileño!!! Lo mejor q ya esta el cinturón con su verdadero dueño. Arriba mexicoooo y arriba Brasil!!! 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Dayum ,unlucky Figueiredo,Moreno is such a sniper ,love his fight style,he really leaves no room for unluckys or mistakes when it comes to his opponents .Congratulations Brandon Moreno .
O principal problema que eu vejo no Figueredo, é que ele fala e promete demais antes da luta,e isso é a pior coisa que um verdadeiro guerreiro deve fazer ,a maior arma de um guerreiro é o silêncio !
He's moving up because there is no chance of a 5th fight. The UFC would overlook him because no one wants to see a 5th. I think he might do quite well at BW. He's definitely a warrior who brings it.
Saludos max tienes toda la razón primero es aprender respectar y saber perder los brasileños son buenos para pelear también los mexicanos somos grandes de Boxeo 👍✌️😅
LMFAO! No longer just the sage words of wisdom from a NASCAR driver for millions of rednecks to rally behind since coherent arguments have seemingly always proved too difficult for them! 😜
The translator got it all wrong when he said "I thought it was an eye poke", when in reality Figueiredo said "Tonight was Brandon's night, i CAN'T say it was an eye poke"... Basically the exact opposite. Respect for Deiveson
deiveson figueiredo is very likely going to have success against the short 135er in height, but the taller and longer 135er are going to be a tough fight for him.
I don't see the drive anymore from him at 125, you see in the 3rd fight with Moreno he's smiling and gesturing and talking to him the whole time, not phased by anything, and in this fight he was just kind of on autopilot.
That was no eye poke but a left punch right to the eye socket! Nasty but legal. It wasn't deliberately done, it happens in MMA. You train in MMA you know all about it. Try getting in the cage and experiencing a shark tank! I have and it can happen. I've got nothing on these pros but a punch in the eye can happen and its nasty. Much respect to both fighters 👏
2020 Figueiredo would've never got hesitant at striking or grappling with whoever, he was fearless. He seems like he lost it ever since Moreno submitted him. 2020 Figueiredo beat Moreno (Idc what anybody says, even with the point deduction he should've won) and beats every Moreno version, he just regressed a lot.
This was actually as bad of a translation as Aldo v Connor lol. Completely misrepresented what figgy said and straight up put words in his mouth he didn’t say 😂
Very good fight. It's unfortunate that it had to end like that. Does anyone notice the way Daniel Cormier ends his interviews? To me it's lack of sincerity and attention given to the fighters. I used to think it's because they're pushing to move on, but i don't think so. Joe Rogan would stand patiently, look at the fighters in the eyes, give them plenty of mic time to express their thoughts, and, most importantly, genuinely shake their hands before stepping away. That's why all the fighters are extremely excited to talk to JR, and they even ask to photograph with him. They put their lives on the line to entertain us. That's the least interviewers could oblige them. Just my 2 cents
I think he’s the only fighter I’ve ever seen lay their gloves in the ring just to announce they’re leaving a division but not retiring 🤣 maybe something got lost in the translation
Fig is what happens when a fighter does well and USADA begins testing them. Completely different fighter in both body and mentality since he became known and as a result started getting tested.
O Figueiredo é da minha cidade, Belém do Pará, inclusive meu irmão conhece ele. Conheço outros caras que são amigos meus e terminaram com ele na mesma academia. O cara é completamente arrogante, não é um cara humilde mesmo. E isso eu garanto! Viram na pesagem? Assim é ele, não entendo o porque muitos são assim, no final, isso acaba lá em cima, e não foi diferente com ele. Apanhou merecidamente!!!
You know what’s funny ? His hand wasn’t open at all. That should end the argument right there. His hand was a fist, clear intent to punch and his knuckle so happened to pierce past the eyelids. It was a wild way for a punch to land, but it’s clear, he did not go into that punch thinking “ lemme stab his eye with my knuckle “ he was trying to take his head off. Good day.
