UFC 252 Prediction: Sean O’Malley vs Marlon Vera Prediction
Follow Us
Sean O’Malley returns to action as he takes on Marlon Vera in the co-main event of UFC 252 at Apex Center on August 15.
After registering a sensational KO win at UFC 250, O’Malley has proven to be consistent with his activity in the promotion. Two months later, he will face off against a veteran bantamweight to retain his undefeated streak.
Although Vera has proven to be beatable several times, he has also billed himself as a top-rated fighter, being comfortable in both feet and mat.

While DC and Miocic will headline the stellar PPV fight card, here’s how the co-headliner between O’ Malley and Marlon Vera will appear like.
Sean O’ Malley ‘Sugar’ vs Marlon Vera ‘Cito’ Preview
Rising prospect O’Malley has already garnered a lot of attention over himself. Apart from being bashy and cocky on the mic, ‘Sugar’ has deliberately outclassed his rivals in-octagon to validate his loud mouth.
He would possibly repeat the same in the upcoming contest. A few more wins would bring O’Malley closer to the title fight. Thus he can very well go down in search of another KO win.

O’Malley is a deadly knockout specialist who overpowers his rivals in the first round itself. He has done that in his last two fights.
No doubt, O’ Malley can surprise everyone once again with his crisp striking combinations and lethal shots.
Marlon Vera would also desperately hunt for a win as he needs to bounce back to the win column. After relishing a five-fight win streak, Vera lost his last fight on a close-call against Song Yadong in May 2020.
While many billed the results to be unfair, Vera appeared alluring against his rival. However, he didn’t have the judge’s favor.
If you look at Vera’s journey in the UFC, it is clear that ‘Chito’ is comfortable in notching wins at his feet and the ground both. Thus, he can very well be the next big thing in UFC by defeating O’Malley this weekend.
If not, the ‘Sugar Show’ would continue for the fans.
