"Until now, when I weigh a little, I left my soul and physique in the fight and, unfortunate, God, life and destiny told me it was not my turn," Brandon Moreno commented on his most recent fight.

"I think that the people, and that helps me to take things a little, because all the people tell me: you shot yourself, that helps me, the people saw how I gave up my soul to win, things were not given to me by the judges," he added.

During the fight, he suffered an injury to his left hand, but does not need surgery.

"I spoke to the doctor on Tuesday and he told me that I am not going to have an operation, that is good, because it will be less months of recovery," he explained.
