Rob Font put the bantamweight division on notice when he stopped former title challenger Marlon Moraes. After being out for a year due to injury, Font (18-4 MMA, 8-3 UFC) returned in impressive fashion when he knocked out Moraes in the first round at UFC Fight Night 183 . The win marked Font’s biggest to date, landing him in the No. 10 spot of the latest USA TODAY Sports/MMA Junkie bantamweight rankings . Having won his past three in a row, Font is looking to make a title run and said he is only targeting the upper echelon of the division. “Obviously I’m happy with the ‘W,’ but it’s onto the next one,” Font told MMA Junkie.
