Marvin Vettori recently opened up about his upcoming fight with Brendan Allen at UFC 318. Vettori targeted Allen with harsh words and promised to teach him a lesson.
Vettori and Allen are ready to settle their differences inside the cage in the prelims of UFC 318, which will take place in front of the American's home audience at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, Louisiana. The two were originally scheduled to face each other at UFC Vegas 90 last year. However, the former title challenger pulled out of the fight due to an injury, resulting in bad blood between the two.
During a recent interview with TMZ Sports, Vettori slammed Allen, saying:
''It’s a long story. But I’m gonna tell you this, just by the look of his face, I don’t like [Allen]. Doesn’t take much. Fu*k man, this guy, he’s just unlikable. But I mean there is reason but I don’t want to say it here… The way he carries himself, he’s just a whiny little guy… It’s not gonna go the distance, I’m just gonna tell you that. I’m gonna go all out, it’s gonna be like now or never, it’s gonna be kill or die… I’m looking to run through him, completely fu*king dismantle this guy.''Get the latest updates on One Championship Rankings at Sportskeeda and more
