This week at UFC Fight Night: Covington vs. Buckley, we can tell you Marley is backing Vitor Petrino (-305) in a light heavyweight bout versus Dustin Jacoby (+245). "Jacoby is a talented kickboxer but he is going to need to keep this fight at range to win. Petrino is the more powerful striker and he throws with solid volume, so he can win on the feet. He will have a bigger edge in the wrestling department. I'll take him to win by decision, but he could get a TKO on the feet or the ground," said Marley.
Marley also has strong picks for Covington vs. Buckley and other bouts on the UFC Fight Night card. He's also backing an underdog who has "KO power and he has shown more volume on the feet" to prevail! You MUST see his UFC picks before making any of your own.
