“The Assassin Baby” is acting his age.
In a faceoff featuring two 23-year-old flyweights, it was Brandon Moreno who stole the show with his cartoonish facial expressions at the UFC Fight Night 114 media day weigh-ins on Thursday.
Moreno’s act was in stark contrast to the stoic expression of Sergio Pettis, who he faces in Saturday night’s main event at the Arena Ciudad de Mexico in Mexico City.
Also of note, “Smile’n’” Sam Alvey was his usual jovial self (“This is all so cool to me,” he tells opponent Rashad Evans) and Alejandro “El Diablito” Perez looked like he was getting ready to rip Andre Soukhamthath’s head off.
