Marlon Vera vs Pedro Munhoz Prediction: the Win is Something to Struggle For

On the evenin✃g of August 20th, UFC 292 will occur in the United States, headlined by a title fight between Aljamain Sterling and Sean O'Malley. We present the prediction for the preliminary card fight Marlon Vera vs Pedro Mun𒀰hoz.

Marlon Vera

The 30-year-old Ecuadorian is ranked ♌sixth in the lightweight division. Chito has been competing in the UFC since 2014. In that time, mixed martial arts fans have witnessed an evolution of the fighter.

Recently, Vera's bouts have either come down to the judges' decision or have ended in knockouts. Marlon defeated two former UFC championജs, Frankie Edgar and Dominick 💞Cruz, with insane striking.

V🌸era can also wrestle quite well, he has eight wins by submis☂sion, but the last one occurred in 2019. At the moment, Vera prefers to clear relationships in the standing.

And it seems that everything is in the arsenal o🅷f the Ecuadorian, but in fights with top rivals, Vera always lacks something. And even when he came close to a title shot, Corey Sandhagen stood in his ♐way and interrupted Marlon's powerful four-fight winning streak.

Pedro Munhoz

The 36-year-old veteran Brazilian rounds out the to꧃p t♔en strongest fighters in the lightweight division. Like Vera, Munoz has been fighting in the UFC since 2014. Munoz isn't at championship level, but he's a highly durable and relentless fighter.

Pedro had some good results early on, but as of 2019, he hasn't shined. He has just two wins on his record in his last seven fights. Note that Pedro has ne💮ver lost early in his professional career.

In his last fight, which took place in April of this year, Munoz scored a long-awaited victory, winning a unanimous decision𒀰 over Chris Gutierrez.

Expert Betting Tips

Of course, the Ecuadorian is the favorite💎. He has a larger arsenal an♏d has fought only at the top of the division lately. The loss to Corey Sandhagen has not hurt Vera's championship aspirations too much, and he should be back on the winning track soon.

Munoz is an easy opponent for Chito but it will not be an easy fight. Marlon must puജt all his c🌊ards on the table to be on top. In 14 years, no one has defeated Pedro early, and Vera is unlikely to be the exception to the rule.
