Alex has one more in him.
UFC Retirement
Alex Morono is a 24-13 mixed martial artist who is current signed with the UFC. But, the 35 year old vet is also on a 4 fight losing streak and hasn’t won a fight since 2024. Alex just fought this past weekend at UFC Vegas 113, where he lost to Daniil Donchenko by unanimous decision. Following the bout, Alex took to social media to share a message, saying that he knows this could’ve been the end, but he’s hoping for one last fight to retire on.
”If someone makes you bleed, spit it in their face and hit them as hard as you can. I got to make my 24th walk to the Octagon and, as always, had the time of my life. I always go in there to win, no matter what, no matter what it takes. They threw a young, hungry kickboxer my way and we got to throw down on the biggest stage in the world. Much respect to my opponent and his team. Despite the odds being stacked against me I was happy to accept the challenge and am beyond grateful for my team behind me in preparation and during battle.
I didn’t get my hand raised but I did get to show the MMA community what Houston vets are all about. This war horse has some miles on him for damn sure. If this was my last ride, I’ll go out with my head held high. In a perfect world, my next fight will be my last. The UFC has been my home for the last decade. No where I’d rather fight. No where I’d rather retire. I’m confident and hopeful they’ll give me one last dance. It’s been a hell of a career. Genuine thank you for all of the support over the years. Stay tuned for what’s next. Death or victory. 24-13”
Alex Morno does have some wins over veterans of the sport such as Court McGee, Tim Means, Max Griffin and even Donald Cerrone. If this is the end, thank you, Alex. But, hopefully UFC offers him one last ride to go out on top.
