A shin to the side of the head 33 seconds in to round one and the fight was over. Marlon Moraes has been on a tear. This takes Marlon to 21-5.

Marlon's only loss of late was to Raphael Assuncao in June of 2017 by split decision. Marlon has been a finisher in his career with 15 finishes in 21 fights.

Marlon was ranked 4 and Jimmie 3 and thus only TJ, Cody, and Raphael are above him. Unfortunately Raphael is fighting Rob Font on 7/7/18 and TJ and Cody are fighting on 8/4/18, thus Marlon is going to be on the shelf for a while.

What would be awesome is if number 11 ranked Rob Font pulls out and Marlon fights Raphael on 7/7/18.

Let me know what you think about the Bantamweight division.
