Quick read
Marlon 'Chito' Vera dropped a decision to David Martinez in the UFC Mexico City co-main event on February 28, 2026, extending his losing streak to three consecutive defeats. Once a title contender following his upset of Sean O'Malley at UFC 299, Vera appeared sluggish and lacked explosive moments throughout the fight, with Martinez controlling the action from start to finish. The loss marks a significant decline for the once-prominent bantamweight, though his star power may afford him additional opportunities to reverse his trajectory. Vera's killer instinct appears diminished as he faces pressure to return to winning ways.
