Marlon ‘Chito’ Vera awaits rival and date for his first fight in 2022 | Other Sports | sports

The Ecuadorian today is number 8 in the top 15 of the UFC bantamweight, his best position so far.

If we stick to the position in the ranking from Marlon Vera, Dominick Cruz should be the Ecuadorian fighter’s next contender in the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) bantamweight division. Vera defeated former lightweight champion Frankie Edgar in New York’s Madison Square Garden in November, and climbed to eighth in the ranking in December; while Cruz closed the year with a triumph over Pedro Munhoz and is one notch higher than Chito.

Right now it is unknown who will be the Manabita’s contender, although he suggested two weeks ago in the podcast of Joe Rogan that his next match could be in February 5 rounds; that is, a main event.

In the same line, Chito mentioned the room of the ranking, Cory Sandhagen, as a tentative opponent. But until today there is nothing unofficial even.

However, the tricolor bantamweight is always ready and attentive to challenges. “Whoever comes is given,” he wrote this Tuesday on his Twitter account.

Vera has participated in 18 UFC fights, with just 29 years and her record has been positive, with 12 wins and 6 losses.

Today is number 8 in the top 15 of the 135 pounds, his best position so far and above all he has solidified his career making it long-lived and what he lacks, for that reason, the idol of Chone Vera has been chosen by the UFC Spanish page one of the Latin banners that currently has the promotion.
