UFC Brasilia prelim results & videos: Moreno gets past Formiga, Yahya and Barzola fight to draw

The UFC Brasilia card is underway and the decision-heavy prelims just wrapped up with the promotion’s #5 ranked flyweight, Brandon Moreno, taking a unanimous decision over the #3 ranked, Jussier Formiga. It was quite a technical bout throughout, full of exciting scrambles. The striking was the difference maker, with Moreno letting his hands go to aid in getting the nod. For the record, he has not lost in his last four outings. This is the biggest win of Moreno’s career, and he now finds himself knocking on the door of a 125-pound title shot.

Before that, Amanda Ribas had a strong showing against Randa Markos, picking up the unanimous decision.
