Thiago Moises is down but not out following his defeat last night.
Moises took on Islam Makhachev in the UFC Vegas 31 headliner in what was undoubtedly the biggest fight of his career. While he did have some moments and even managed to get Makhachev down, the Brazilian was largely outclassed throughout the contest.
In the end, Makhachev was able to sink in the rear naked choke and get the fourth-round submission victory.
While it was a blow which ended the three-fight winning streak of Moises, he is still only 26 years of age and has plenty of time to grow even more.
He released a statement soon after the fight as he praised Makhachev and promised to come back stronger.
“Thank you all SO much for the incredible support. I’m proof we could put on a show for you tonight.
Islam is an amazing fighter, and he was the best guy tonight. No excuses, we keep improving. I’m only 26 years old, I have a lot of time to be in my prime, but fighting is in my blood and I won’t stop.
I’m still a winner because I have a great family, a great team, great fans 
and I’m able to do what I love.
I’m the prove that: if you work hard and follow your dreams, everything is possible. Thank you UFC, I’ll see you all soon!”
Given his showing against Makhachev, even in defeat, Moises is likely to have gained some fans and it will be interesting to see what’s next for him.
What did you make of the performance of Moises? Who should he face next?
Islam Makhachev wants Tony Ferguson next. Following his win over Thiago Moises in the UFC Vegas 31 headliner last night, Makhachev listed off a number of names he was interested in fighting from Rafael dos Anjos to Michael Chandler. One other name was Ferguson and it’s not only because of his ranking, but rather, the […]
Islam Makhachev wants Tony Ferguson next.
Following his win over Thiago Moises in the UFC Vegas 31 headliner last night, Makhachev listed off a number of names he was interested in fighting from Rafael dos Anjos to Michael Chandler.
One other name was Ferguson and it’s not only because of his ranking, but rather, the history “El Cucuy” has with Makhachev’s friend and teammate Khabib Nurmagomedov.
“If they were to give me a choice, let’s do it with Tony because we have good history with him,” Makhachev said at the post-fight press conference (via MMA Junkie). “Khabib was supposed to fight with him like five, six times. Let’s finish this, you know. I’m going to finish this.
“I’m going to show Tony not Khabib level. People don’t understand how Khabib pressures. I can’t explain to you guys, but I think you know everything.”
Of course, Ferguson is on a three-fight losing streak and is also 37 years of age. Beating him right now doesn’t prove much, especially as most fans were excited to see him fight Nurmagomedov from 2015 to 2018.
Regardless, if the fight does happen, Makhachev has a chance to beat Ferguson and become a top-five fighter in the process so it’s a win-win regardless.
As for comparisons with Nurmagomedov? Makhachev has no problem with it even if he is a different fighter to the former lightweight king.
“If somebody says I’m almost the same as Khabib, I agree with this,” Makhachev said. “I want to be like Khabib, you know. He’s a great man, he’s champion, he has a lot of money and he has everything, but he’s still a humble guy.
“He’s coming to U.S. without his family. He stays here one, two months to help us. He doesn’t take money, nothing. He just comes and does the whole thing. We came to U.S. and he rent big house for team and a lot of cars for team and nobody pay. He pay for everything. I cannot explain Khabib. He does a lot of stuff, but not everyone knows this.”
