I think with all the technical aspects things aside, I think I\u2019m just tired. I\u2019m tired of the media, the same questions, the vibe, the constant pressure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t even think it\u2019s a single moment anymore. I think it\u2019s everything I\u2019ve piled on my shoulders in the last few years. I\u2019ve reached a point where my mind is stressed, and I just want to rest a bit. \u201c<\/p>\n<p>Moreno, who has twice held the flyweight championship, expressed his desire to spend time with his family, as his intense training regimen has prevented him from doing many things.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not saying I\u2019m 100 percent stepping away from MMA, but I do want to take a break to rest, be with my family and just be a normal person, be with my daughters, and just do new things,\u201d Brandon Moreno continued.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are many things I haven\u2019t done because I\u2019m 100 percent focused on my training. I just want to rest a bit. This is by no means a goodbye. Just wait for me, have patience, let my body and my mind recover, and we\u2019ll come back to do things well.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"alsoread\">\n<h4 class=\"text-uppercase mb-10 mt-20 fs-18\">Also Read<\/h4>\n<div class=\"post-box sty22\">\n<div class=\"post-frame js-ratioHtP\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<h5 class=\"title\">Conor McGregor hints at returning to UFC<\/h5>\n<p>Conor McGregor shared news about his return.
