Renato Moicano, after his latest UFC win, announced his father’s new baby, his own plans for more children, his future aspirations to join law enforcement in the US, and suggested a matchup against Beneil Dariush in Brazil.
Renato Moicano, the MMA fighter, is quite the showman. Whether he’s in the cage or in front of a mic, he knows how to grab attention.
He’s got a knack for memorable post-fight interviews. Remember when he called himself “Money Moicano” after his last fight? Well, he did it again after his recent win over Drew Dober at UFC Vegas 85.
Before the commentator could even ask a question, Moicano dropped a bombshell. He’s a new big brother! His dad, at 62, just had another baby.
“My dad’s 62 and just had a baby,” he shouted. “I’m gonna get my wife pregnant again. If my f****** dad can populate the world at 62, so can I! ‘Money Moicano’ [the third] is coming.”
But that’s not all. Moicano also discussed his future plans. And they’re not just about fighting.
He wants to clean up the streets in the U.S. He currently lives in Florida and trains at American Top Team in Coconut Creek. He’s set on becoming a citizen and joining law enforcement after his UFC career.
“I love f****** America,” he said. “I’m not American yet, but I will be. After I’m done with fighting, I’m gonna be a cop.
“I wanna be on the SWAT team. I wanna f****** take down the bad guys. There’s right and there’s f****** wrong. People are forgetting that. People are going crazy!
“That’s why I want more kids. I want people to go to church. I want people to respect the f****** law. Otherwise, the greatest country in the world is gonna be a third world country. Something’s wrong in America, and I want it fixed now!”
After his passionate speech about his father and his plans for America, Moicano finally got back to the fight. He first called out an online personality who bet against him. But then he praised Dober as one of the most dangerous men in the UFC.
“I’m a big Drew Dober fan,” he said. “I saw him knocking people out and I was glad I wasn’t in his weight class. Today, I beat the motherf*****. Mad respect for Drew Dober.”
Moicano couldn’t attend the post-fight press conference. He had to get stitches for a cut from a head clash during the fight. But that didn’t stop him from engaging with fans. He went live on YouTube from the hospital and even posted a photo with Dober after their fight.
He also responded to Conor McGregor on Twitter. McGregor congratulated Moicano’s dad on his new baby.
Finally, Moicano talked about his next fight. He suggested a match with Beneil Dariush when UFC returns to Brazil in May.
“Beneil Dariush, see you in Brazil,” he wrote. “If you support ‘Merica, retweet this s*** and tag UFC motherf******.”
