ESPN had Moreno ranked as the No. 2 flyweight in the world, with Royval No. 7.
Deception
(50%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the title and body of the article suggest that Moreno's homecoming was spoiled by Royval's victory. However, this is not entirely accurate as Moreno had lost his previous fight to Pantoja before this one.

The body of the article mentions that Moreno is now 0-2 (1 NC) in Mexico after losing his previous nontitle fight against Royval.

Deception
(30%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author claims that 'it only made sense' for the UFC to hold a Fight Night card in Mexico City because most of the fighters carried their country's flag.

The article contains several logical fallacies. The author uses an appeal to authority by stating that the UFC headed south of the border and it shouldn't come as a surprise all but two of the bouts on the card involved a fighter carrying the flag of Mexico. This is not true, there were more than two fighters from other countries in addition to those from Mexico. The author also uses inflammatory rhetoric by stating that Royval was ranked third at 125 pounds and had won three of his last five, only dropping a pair to Alexandre Pantoja who defeated Moreno to win the belt at UFC 290. This is not true as Royval's ranking fluctuated over time and he did not have a winning record in all of those fights. The author also uses an informal fallacy by stating that Rodriguez stopped an injured Ortega in a Fight Night main event in July 2022, but fails to mention that the fight was ruled no contest due to injury.
