Renato Moicano

5. Moicano’s move

The decision to move up to lightweight appeared to be a good one for [autotag]Renato Moicano[/autotag], who dispatched of Damir Hadzovic with a submission in just 44 seconds.

Moicano had some strong moments during his run at featherweight, but also fell short in some career-altering opportunities. He believes the weight cut had a role in those performances, and now hopes to be his best self in the new division.

With all due respect to Hadzovic, he’s not exactly the best gauge of Moicano’s potential to be a player at 155 pounds. However, if you pair it with the flashes of brilliance displayed fighting down a division, there’s reason to be excited.
