Reigning UFC flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo said he plans to move up to bantamweight after his fourth fight against Brandon Moreno.
I want to fight Moreno in the flyweight, but I want to move up to bantamweight. I'm about to turn 35, and I don't want to put my body under a lot of stress because of the weight class.
