Only nine weeks separate UFC Wichita from UFC 237, but that’s no problem for Sergio Moraes.
Unbeaten in nine of 10 fights since moving down to welterweight in the Octagon, with the only defeat coming by the hands of future 170-pound champion Kamaru Usman, Moraes returns to action against Anthony Rocco Martin at UFC Wichita, hoping to earn a spot in the top 15 of the division with a win Saturday.
“I think it’s important when people ask you about deserving to be in the ranking because it shows you’re doing your part,” Moraes told MMA Fighting.
