Brandon Moreno says he’s had his last battle with Deiveson Figueiredo and is proceeding with his profession and life … however the 125 pound. champ informs TMZ Sports he has definitely no bad blood with his competitor, though he’s not exactly sure the sensation’s shared.
We talked with Moreno simply days after he beat the 35-year-old previous champ … and we asked Brandon if he might see himself in fact ending up being good friends with Deiveson.
“Yes, of course. I never feel nothing bad against him. The bad blood was a little bit because he was talking a lot of s**t about me in some interviews.”
Moreno continued … “After the fight, for example, I went with him and tried to shake hands. He didn’t. I have a lot of respect for him. At the end, he was trying to sell the fight to get something for his family and I respect that because it’s the same with me. I’m just doing this for my family.”
We likewise asked Moreno if he visualized a fifth battle in between him and Figgy.
“Hopefully, no. I’m done. It was nice and we built something huge together. Even for the people, they don’t want to see another between us. The smart people understand why we made four fights together, but for sure they don’t want to see the fifth one.”
“I need to pass the page. I need to rest my body and my mind. But, at the same time, I want to be active and I want to start to put more statements in this division and I want to keep building my legacy.”
