After recovering from a case of COVID-19, former UFC bantamweight title challenger Marlon Moraes is ready to get back into action. Per Combate’s report, ‘Magic’ already has his return lined up for October, when a fight against fellow top contender Cory Sandhagen is scheduled to happen.
In his last outing, Marlon Moraes (23-6-1) edged out former featherweight champion Jose Aldo via a narrow split decision win, back in December 2019. Before that, the 32-year-old was TKO’d by then title-holder Henry Cejudo, when the Brazilian challenged for the bantamweight belt in June of the same year.
