Meanwhile, Brandon Moreno (18-5-1 MMA) was also most previously seen in action at UFC 255, where he earned a TKO victory over Brandon Royval. ‘The Assassin Baby‘ has gone 4-0-1 in his past five fights overall ahead of tonight’s UFC 256 headliner.

UFC 256 is co-headlined by a key lightweight matchup between perennial division contenders Tony Ferguson and Charles Oliveira.

Ferguson (25-4 MMA) was last seen in action at May’s UFC 249 event where he suffered a fifth round TKO loss to Justin Gaethje in a fight for the promotions interim lightweight title.

Prior to the setback, ‘El Cucuy’ was riding a sensational twelve-fight win streak, which saw him net stoppage victories over Edson Barboza, Kevin Lee, Anthony Pettis and Donald Cerrone.

As for Charles Oliveira (29-8 MMA), ‘Do Bronx’ will be returning to action for the first time since submitting Kevin Lee this past March in Brazil. Oliveira will enter UFC 256 on a seven-fight win streak, with all 7 of those wins coming by way of stoppage. During that impressive stretch the submission specialist choked out five of his opponents.
