Former Ultimate Fighting Championship title challenger Marlon Moraes looks to bounce back from a five-bout skid at the expense of Brendan Loughnane. Moraes (23-11-1, 0-1 PFL) isn’t in the best moment of his career, but he believes he has all it takes to take on a victory over 2022 PFL featherweight champion Loughnane. “Magic” looked good in the first two frames of his latest outing before ending on the losing side of a technical knockout loss at the hands of Sheymon Moraes. Still, the former World Series of Fighting 135-pound champion proved he’s still a tough bone to bite for anyone in the PFL featherweight division. Ahead of his bout with Loughnane, Moraes told Sherdog he is optimistic about the adjustments he made in his training camp and has the right mentality to break the losing skid. “it's not easy to face that, to be coming from a losing streak, but we have to be positive. You have to look at my career as a whole and what I did for the sport and what I'm still doing and how I look in training, how I look against the best in the world, and then face it. That's what I have, and that's where I think I belong. Now it's a matter of going out there and proving it. I'm still out there and still can hang out with the best.”(00:00) Intro (00:32) Commenting on his MMA return(02:29) Preparing for Loughnane(03:10) Being on a five-bout skid(04:01) The adjustments he made(04:27) Putting on a show for the fans on April 1 (04:52) Being the former WSOF champion (05:58) Moving up at featherweight(06:40) Outro
