After a lopsided loss in his return following a lengthy layoff, flyweight standout Amir Albazi has vowed to work his way back to contention. Brandon Moreno (22-8-2 MMA, 10-5-2 UFC) dominated Albazi (17-2 MMA, 5-1 UFC) on Saturday in the UFC Fight Night 246 main event in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It was his first fight back after a severe neck injury, but he never got going against the former 125-pound champion . Albazi nearly was swept on the scorecards by Moreno, who was a slight favorite in the fight, but got a 49-46 from one judge, who gave him the first round. But it was smooth sailing for Moreno after that. Albazi posted on social media to say he’ll get back to the form that had him in two straight UFC headliners
