Moreno won his second UFC title by a vicious left-body kick to the liver, and some nasty ground andpound.

The stunning switch kick had a profound impact on the Kiwi's liver and was captured by the octagonside mics.
McGregor, a former champion in two-divisions, was impressed by Moreno’s performance.
In a tweet voice note, the Irishman stated that "That Mexican is little animal of an thing, and so it is with the little New Zealander too."
"Two goers. Two goers who are able to do the job from totally different parts of the globe.
"Two people, but two different in their own ways.
"It was great watching that bout. It was a great bout. The little Mexican boy is a great fighter.
