Brandon Moreno and Deiveson Figueiredo fought for the third time at UFC 270, after the first two flyweight title bouts ended in a draw and a submission win for the Mexican. Based on this match, it looks like we will have to see a fourth match up.

It was still close and back and forth, but the difference maker seems to be Figueiredo coming out far more disciplined and controlled.
