UFC Noche 4 adds Moreno, Grasso in former champions' return
The UFC added six bouts to its Noche UFC 4 card during Saturday's Oklahoma City broadcast, headlined by former flyweight champion Brandon Moreno and ex-women's flyweight titleholder Alexa Grasso.
Moreno, who lost the 125-pound belt in his last two outings, meets Joseph Morales on Sept. 12 at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. Grasso draws Manon Fiorot in a bout with clear title implications after Grasso outpointed Maycee Barber in her most recent appearance and Fiorot dispatched Jasmine Jasudavicius.

The promotion has not announced a main event for the fourth Noche UFC show. More bouts are expected in the coming weeks as the card takes shape for the September date in Arizona.
