The last few years have not been kind to Marlon Moraes. Since fighting for the UFC bamtamweight title in 2019 and getting stopped by Henry Cejudo, Moraes has picked up just one (controversial) win in his last five fights, and has now been stopped four times in a row. The latest person to take him out was Song Yadong, who stopped former WSOF champ in a little over two minutes at UFC Vegas 50.
As expected, Moraes’ stock fell again when it came to the rankings - to the point that he’s almost not even ranked at all anymore.
