Jimmie Rivera refutes Marlon Moraes fight claims — still has eyes on former champion Cody Garbrandt.

Marlon Moraes may be challenging Jimmie Rivera to a fight, according to his latest tweet, but Rivera still has his hopes set on former UFC bantamweight champion Cody Garbrandt.

“Last thing [that] was spoken to Sean [Shelby] was a possible fight with Cody,” Rivera told FanSided on Saturday when asked if he had been given a contract to fight Moraes.

Moraes seems to be on a different page entirely and shared what appears to be a signed contract to fight Rivera on UFC on Fox in February.

Here you go @JimmieRivera135 I signed my bout agreement. @ufc on fox. I also agreed to fight you on march 3rd choose what day you want me to beat your ass B-I-T-C-H @seanshelby @danawhite @AliAbdelaziz00 pic.twitter.com/nrU8WTjacF — Marlon Moraes (@MMARLONMORAES) January 6, 2018

Moraes took the negotiations one step further by calling out Rivera who he says just needs to sign the contract. Rivera tweeted to Garbrandt just two days ago asking to fight him — there was no mention of a possible bout with Moraes.

. @Cody_Nolove says he healthy, let’s put a show on for the fans. He wants to defend his spot and I want to take it. @seanshelby @ufc — Jimmie Rivera (@JimmieRivera135) January 4, 2018

Rivera has had a string of bad luck as of late having his bout with former bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz called off due to injury, then the replacement John Lineker also being pulled for injury. Many had hoped that Moraes might fill in last minute (Rivera even offered to fight at a catchweight due to the last minute nature of the fight) but the matchup was not able to be made, seemingly due to Moraes unable to make the weight in time.

Moraes is on a two-fight win streak after defeating Aljamain Sterling via a stunning (and scary) knee KO at UFC Fight Night 123 – Swanson vs. Ortega.

Rivera hasn’t lost a fight since 2008 and has gone undefeated in all five of his UFC appearances. He holds victories over Marcus Brimage, Pedro Munhoz, Iuri Alcantara, Urijah Faber, and Thomas Almeida.

UFC on Fox will take place in Orlando, FL on Feb. 24. The main event has yet to be announced.
