The fourth clash between Brandon Moreno and Deiveson Figueiredo at UFC 283 saw the former take hold of the UFC flyweight championship. Moreno was declared the winner after a third-round TKO. Renowned commentator and podcaster Joe Rogan took to social media to congratulate him on his victorious outing in Rio de Janeiro.

The Moreno vs. Figueiredo 4 bout was stopped in the third round after the doctor stopped the fight due to Figueiredo getting his eyes swollen. ‘The Assassin’ wrapped up a memorable rivalry with ‘Deus da Guerra’ in their undisputed title clash. Moreno is now in his second reign as UFC’s flyweight title holder.

However, Moreno did not receive much love from the Brazilian crowd. The crowd in Rio de Janeiro hurled out the popcorn and drinks at the champion as he walked out of the arena. However, Joe Rogan showered his praise and appreciation on Brandon Moreno in a post on Instagram.
