Renato Moicano knows exactly what he's looking for in his next Ultimate fight: easy money. After finishing Chris Duncan in the second round of the main event at UFC Vegas 115, held last Saturday (4), the Brazilian made it clear that he intends to adopt a more strategic approach in choosing his opponents. The YouTuber indicated a preference for matchups that he considers favorable, avoiding rivals who, in his current view, represent greater risks inside the octagon.

In an interview with 'UFC on Paramount', Moicano mentioned names like Dan Hooker , Paddy Pimblett , and Benoit Saint-Denis as attractive fights from a financial standpoint. On the other hand, he ruled out a possible confrontation against Mauricio Ruffy , highlighting that his perception changed after his compatriot's recent performance, whom he now sees as a dangerous opponent.

“ Dan Hooker is an easy money fight, Paddy Pimblett is easy money, Benoit Saint-Denis is also easy money. I don't want anything to do with Mauricio Luffy , because in the past I thought I could beat that guy, but now, after what he did against Fiziev, did you see that? That guy is the real deal, I don't want anything to do with Mauricio Luffy ,” explained Renato Moicano.

The Brazilian also mentioned his teammate Mateusz Gamrot , but treated the possibility of facing him jokingly, indicating that he has no interest in testing his strength against his training partner at the moment.

“ Mateusz Gamrot trains on my team, but now I’m fighting everyone on the team, so maybe Mateusz… No, I’m just kidding. Don’t worry, Mateusz, I’m just kidding, I don’t want to fight you,” concluded the Brazilian.
