Both are throwing nothing but fastballs but at this point, Marlon has a lot more on his

Moraes is attacking the legs of Cejudo with low kicks. #UFC238

This fight isn't trending well for Cejudo. Has trouble getting inside because of kicks, and when he does get inside, Moraes is so much faster he can land 2 for 1. #UFC238

Oh boy @MMARLONMORAES picking Henry apart yikes #UFC238 not surprised marlon is a savage

Brutal round for Henry

— caposa (@Grabaka_Hitman) June 9, 2019

Cejudo keeps dipping low after he punches, not a good habit against a strong kicker.

— Brandon Gibson (@SixGunGibson) June 9, 2019

Every one of Moraes’s kicks that land sounds like someone’s breaking a damn baseball bat. #UFC238

Most fighters who try to just slug it out and pressure Moraes end up looking at the lights, but Cejudo is accurate and smothering. It's working. Very interesting second round.
