Former flyweight champion and number-two ranked flyweight Brandon Moreno takes on the number-three ranked contender Amir Albazi in the main event of UFC Fight Night this Saturday.
Although he boasts a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, Brandon Moreno has struggled as of late - having dropped his last two contests in a row.
In an attempt to regain his flyweight title, Moreno lost a close split-decision to champion Alexandre Pantjo before losing a second split-decision in his most recent bout against Brandon Royval.
Amir Albazi is currently on a six-fight winning streak that includes five straight wins in the UFC.
Albazi most recently earned a split-decision win over Kai Kara-France. However, that fight took place last June and this main event against Moreno will be his first fight of 2024.
Moreno will stand two-inches taller and have a two-inch advantage in reach as well. The former champion is a -172 favorite to win at FanDuel.

The number-three ranked women’s flyweight Erin Blanchfield looks to cement herself as the next title contender with a win over the number-seven ranked, former strawweight champion Rose Namajunas in the co-main event.
Blanchfield, a BJJ black belt, started her UFC career by winning five in a row. However, she suffered her first promotional loss in her most recent bout - dropping a unanimous decision to Manon Fiorot back in March.
Namajunas, a former two-time women’s strawweight champion, debuted in the flyweight division last September. However, she lost her 125-pound debut against Manon Fiorot.
She has since bounced back by winning two in a row over Amanda Ribas and, most recently, Tracey Cortez, whom she defeated back in July by unanimous decision.
Blanchfield is seven-years younger than her opponent and will have a three-inch reach advantage. She is a -140 favorite over Namajunas at FanDuel.

Sitting just outside the top-ten, former heavyweight title challenger and UFC record holder for the most knockouts Derrick Lewis looks to stay in the win column following his huge TKO win over Rodrigo Nascimento this past May.
He takes on muay thai black belt and undefeated MMA fighter Jhonata Diniz, whose 8-0 record includes a win on the Contender Series and two wins inside the UFC octagon.
Diniz most recently earned a unanimous decision win over Karl Williams this past August. He will stand one-inch taller and is a -174 at FanDuel over the fan-favorite Derrick Lewis.
