Renato Moicano took a slight jab at Joe Biden while complaining about being temporarily banned on YouTube.
Over the past two years, Moicano has become a fan-favorite for his thrilling fighting style and outgoing personality. The 34-year-old Brazilian tends to keep his fanbase updated with hilarious messages on Twitter, which recently happened regarding a short-term YouTube suspension:
“I can’t answer comments for a day… YouTube ban me to comment because a mf was saying he would beat me in a fight and I said his a b**** sorry guys not replying until tomorrow #welcome #bidenadministration #usa”
Moicano made his UFC debut in December 2014 with a professional MMA record of 8-0-1. He quickly emerged as a potential future contender with three consecutive wins. However, at UFC 214, the Brazilian suffered a minor setback when he was submitted by Brian Ortega in the third round.

After back-to-back submission wins against Jai Herbert and Alexander Hernandez, the fighter had his momentum halted when he lost a unanimous decision against Rafael dos Anjos.
The 34-year-old last fought in November 2022, submitting Brad Riddell in the first round and plans to continue climbing the UFC lightweight rankings later this year.
