Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Flyweight scrappers John Moraga and Sergio Pettis threw down last night (Jan. 15, 2017) at UFC Fight Night 103 inside Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, Arizona.
Last night was a very important bout for Moraga. The former title contender could not afford a third straight loss, and his position inside the top 10 hung in the balance. To remain relevant at 125 lbs., Moraga needed a strong showing.
On the other hand, Pettis entered this fight with some momentum behind him, having won four of his last five. Opposite Moraga, Pettis was aiming to score the biggest win of his young career.
