The Brazilian fighter showcased incredible grit in the face of a secret struggle. He dominated the hometown hero despite being injured throughout the fight.
From the opening bell, Moicano dominated. His strikes were precise, and his movement fluid. Saint-Denis couldn’t find an answer to his onslaught. But behind the scenes, something was amiss. Moicano had been nursing a shoulder injury. He’d kept it under wraps, not wanting to pull out of the fight.
As the fight progressed, a slight bump above Renato Moicano’s right shoulder was visible. Then, in the second round, it happened. Moicano’s shoulder seemed to pop out of place. Yet, ‘Money’ didn’t flinch. He kept fighting as if nothing had happened.
The fight ultimately ended after the second round. Saint-Denis couldn’t continue due to a swollen eye, and Moicano’s hand was raised in victory. Later, Moicano dropped a bombshell as he shared X-ray images of his shoulder injury on social media. Turns out, he had been fighting with a severely damaged shoulder. For three weeks before the fight! And through two rounds in the octagon!
