MMAFighting.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\u201cThis belt deserved an owner, even if it was Deiveson or Benavidez, but Deiveson f*cked up by missing weight. It really was very unprofessional. I don\u2019t know what happened, I can\u2019t judge the guy, but if you\u2019re fighting for the belt you can\u2019t miss weight. It\u2019s bad for the division, for the UFC, for the public,” Formiga said.<\/p>\n
Formiga is hoping the UFC doesn’t shut down the flyweight division all because one fighter wasn’t professional enough to make the weight.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere was a rumor that the division was going to end, but then Cejudo went there and beat Demetrious. That was good, but then he quickly left to bantamweight. Okay, at least the division is not stuck anymore. But all fighters can\u2019t pay for one fighter\u2019s mistake. Deiveson was the one that f*cked up. Okay, he went there and won, but the whole division can\u2019t pay for his fuck*p, right?” Formiga said.<\/p>\n
To that end, Formiga believes that because Figueiredo missed weight, his fight against top contender Brandon Moreno this weekend at UFC Brasilia should put the winner in a great position to compete for the vacant belt.<\/p>\n
“(Figueiredo) left the belt vacant and we don\u2019t know what\u2019s going to happen. I\u2019m fighting Brandon in two weeks and I think this fight can decide a lot of things. We\u2019ll see what happens,” Formiga said.<\/p>\n
Do you agree with what Jussier Formiga said about Deiveson Figueiredo?<\/p>\n
