Brandon Moreno is one step closer to becoming the undisputed flyweight champion again after defeating Kai Kara-France in the UFC 277 co-headliner.
With champion Deiveson Figueiredo injured, Moreno (20-5-2 MMA, 8-2-2 UFC) clinched the interim 125-pound belt with a third-round TKO win over Kara-France (24-10 MMA , 7-3 UFC) at the American Airlines Center in Dallas.
Below are the top Twitter reactions to Moreno’s win over Kara-France at UFC 277.

Immediately you see Moreno using this long cross-shaped guard to keep France at bay. #UFC277

Kara-France is already showing the leg kicks I called for in my breakdown where I was wondering if we were seeing a variation on a Volk-Max 1 game plan #UFC277

Hope Moreno got more than the 1 x 30 minute pad session per week that I got the whole 7 months at camp.. π #UFC277

Kai invests in Moreno’s leading leg.
This is probably a 25 minute ordeal.
It is best to start cutting early. #UFC277β Phil Murphy (@Phil_Sports) July 31, 2022

This finish came out of nowhere!
Brandon Moreno drops Kara-France with a body shot and it looks like we’re going to have a flyweight quadrilogy.

That southpaw liver stroke, baby. As my late, great kickboxing coach Tim Lane asked his classes, “What’s the weakest kick you can give someone?”
That answer is the liver. The liver, Chico.#UFC277 another reminder of the importance/brutality of bodywork.
