UFC Fight Night: Assuncao vs. Moraes 2 fight card

The UFC is headed back to Fortaleza, Brazil on February 2nd for an ESPN+ show, and it’s a good one. In the main event, Raphael Assuncao rematches Marlon Moraes in a pivotal bantamweight battle that will likely determine who will somehow not get the next title shot against T.J. Dillashaw.

As for the co-main event, Jose Aldo is staying at featherweight to take on fellow Brazilian Renato Moicano. It’s really a disservice to both men that this is not a five-round bout just because it’s not the main event.

Also slated for the card is welterweight veteran Demian Maia against Lyman Good, while Thiago Alves faces Max Griffin.
