The victory of Renato Moicano No. UFC Las Vegas 85 increased the confidence of the Brazilian lightweight (up to 70,3 kg) even further. Executioner of Drew dober last weekend, the fighter dared and asked for a confrontation against Beneil Dariush, featured in the top 10 of the group. The Tupiniquim suggests a clash 'at your home'.

With the intention of further scaling the category led by Islam makhachev, Renato seeks to perform at the big event in May. Although it is not official, there are rumors that the May 4 card will be held in Rio de Janeiro.

A former standout in the featherweight division (up to 65,7 kg.), Moicano is trying to repeat the record of success achieved in the category that is today led by Alexander Volkanovsky. In the past, the athlete was close to competing for the title, but 'hit the post' in the 'elimination fight' held against José Aldo, when he ended up being surpassed by the legend.

Benil Dariush see you in Brazil… if you support Merica… retweet this shit and tag @ufc modafukers
