Brandon Moreno has twice been the UFC's flyweight champion -- and he could soon have a chance to win it for a third time -- but, the Mexican MMA star is on the hunt for a goal even bigger than gold ... he wants to be the greatest ever!

"Man, I want to be one of the best," Moreno told TMZ Sports this week ... "I want to be of the history of the flyweight division. I won the title twice in the past, but I feel I have to do a little bit more, you know?"

Of course, G.O.A.T. is a subjective debate with no definitive answer. Still, most agree Demetrious Johnson is the best ever in the division, with Henry Cejudo making a strong case for himself (Triple C beat Mighty Mouse -- not to mention he won an Olympic gold medal and became UFC bantamweight champion, too).
