In full preparation, both rivals are finishing the last phases of their training, in what will be the main fight of a six-fight main card.

Vera defeated Frankie Edgar by technical knockout in the third round, at Madison Square Garden in New York, in what was his last fight on November 6, framed in the UFC 268 event.
“There will be no decision. I’ll go into the cage and throw him out,” Vera said, alluding to the match.
Faced with this scenario, the man from Manabí is preparing for what will be his most important challenge, so far, in his career.
