There is a lot to learn from sports. It’s a fact well-established. All sports have elements of focus, determination, perseverance, and camaraderie engrained in them. MMA is no exception. While athletes may be individuals inside the cage, training happens with a team that sweats and bleeds with you. Sparring partners, gym mates, coaches, corners, and doctors are the people behind every W a fighter earns. It’s thus natural to feel elated when a teammate wins. Sweet scenes of friendship and camaraderie were on display in Fury FC 76. But someone celebrated quite wildly.

Fans loved to see how a happy Marcelo Rojo clung to the cage like spiderman as he looked at his friend Brandon Moreno who was celebrating wildly. The UFC flyweight champion from Mexico was super pumped, and the scenes were loved by both Argentinian and Mexican fans. UFC Bantamweight fighter Merab Dvalishvili also congratulated Marce Rojo, who was himself a UFC fighter in the past.

Fans love it as Rojo returns to winning ways

Marcelo Rojo defeated Angel Cruz with a knockout in the very first round. He was visibly very happy to have found a win after three consecutive losses in the UFC. Fans too joined him in his win, a fan commented, “Camaraderie is everything when you give loyalty, you get real friendship”. Merab Dvalishvili commented, “Congratulations brother great job”.

A fan mentioned Moreno and Rojo being from different countries, still being passionate about each other’s success. He commented, “Argentinians insulting Mexicans, insulted Pantera and Alexa for their championship and now look at a Mexican, supporting an Argentinian anyway, being a good person is not for everyone”.

Fans also appreciated Moreno. A comment said, “The humility of a champion and loyalty to his friends!” Another fan saw this win as Rojo’s door to him getting back in the UFC. He commented, “With that win, he returns to UFC”. A summarised the feeling in three words. He wrote, “Friendship, loyalty, honor”.

Rojo didn’t enjoy his UFC stint

Marcelo Rojo will be relieved to have finally got his hands on a victory. The past year had been very disappointing for him as he lost all three of his UFC fights. He lost against Francis Marshall, Kyler Phillips, and Charles Jourdain. The consecutive losses were probably the reason behind his departure from the UFC.

Fans will expect the two fighters to keep celebrating each other’s victories. Rojo himself would like to string a few victories together to get his MMA career back in the fast lane. Rojo currently sits on a 17-9 win-loss record. Do you think Brandon Moreno will inspire Rojo to better that record? Let us know.
