Brandon Moreno upset the home crowd in his fourth encounter with Deiveson Figueiredo. After three rounds at UFC 283, with the Brazilian’s eye being too swollen to continue, Herb Dean stopped the fight and awarded Moreno a TKO victory. On Twitter, pro fighters reacted to the match.
This is special. This is history. The Quadrilogy is upon us. LFG @Daico_Deiveson

Hectic first round. Moreno’s wrestling looks much improved. I could watch these dudes fight forever. #UFC283

That was definitely an illegal heel strike by Figueiredo end of round 1
