“He can make all the breakdowns he wants, he can talk all the sh*t he wants,” Vera said. “Deep down, he’s still a little bit of a c*nt. So, I’m gonna show that, I’m gonna put pressure, and wherever the fight goes I’m gonna f***ing fight like my life depends on it and it’s gonna be a good fight. I guarantee that, it’s gonna be a great fight.”During an appearance on the “Believe You Me” podcast, Vera shared his take on Cejudo’s attempts to get under the skin of his opponents.
Vera went on to say that Cejudo is someone who likes to go for it, and he feels that may be “Triple C’s” downfall against him. “Chito” said that he’s going to throw some “fire” against Cejudo, and his mindset is to win the fight at all costs.
Marlon “Chito” Vera isn’t fazed by the trash talk and breakdowns Henry Cejudo is known for.[embedded content]As for Cejudo, he’s looking for the quickest path back to a title fight. He dropped a split decision against Aljamain Sterling in a failed bid to become a two-time UFC Bantamweight Champion.
Answer To Wrestling
“A guy like him is really good in the clinch,” Vera said. “I mean, I feel like I could wrestle for the next five years and probably don’t get to his level, and that would probably be the same for everybody in the division. If you’re starting on him just wrestle, it’s gonna probably be impossible for him to win, but this is MMA. The levels get pretty equal once you’re punching people in the face and you keep the right attitude and you keep in shape. You might take me down, you might put me in the clinch, but you still gotta fight.”
