FREE FULL FIGHT: Brazilian great Adriano Moraes ends his intense rivalry with Filipino star Geje Eustaquio in crazy matchup

Former ONE flyweight MMA world champion Adriano Moraes is one of the longest-tenured athletes on the ONE Championship roster. His ONE flyweight MMA world championship trilogy fight with then-reigning king Geje Eustaquio at ONE: Hero's Ascent in January 2019 is among his most memorable performances.

'Mikinho' had revenge on his mind entering their rivalry-defining trilogy encounter after Eustaquio dethroned him via split decision in June 2018. The Brazilian dominated the Team Lakay star to take back the ONE flyweight MMA world championship via unanimous decision.

Rewatch the entirety of their third fight, which ONE shared on YouTube:

After settling the score with 'Gravity', Moraes successfully defended the ONE flyweight MMA world championship against now-retired MMA great Demetrious Johnson by knocking him out at ONE on TNT I in April 2021.

The American Top Team and Constrictor Team star fought 'Mighty Mouse' twice more over the 135-pound MMA crown in August 2022 and May 2023, but the American legend was triumphant on both occasions.

For his 16th fight under the ONE banner, Moraes will rematch Filipino foe Danny Kingad at ONE 169: Malykhin vs. 'Reug Reug' on Nov. 8 inside the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

Danny Kingad praises Adriano Moraes' constant improvement

Danny Kingad, who succumbed to a rear-naked choke when he challenged 'Mikinho' for the 135-pound MMA crown in November 2017, pointed out how much Adriano Moraes has improved throughout his decade-plus run in the ONE flyweight MMA division.

In an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda MMA, 'The King' said:

"Since he's been fighting in MMA, we've seen him evolve to incorporate more striking to his game."
