MMA Junkie<\/a> about Vettori. \u201cMarvin may have lost his last title fight, but he gained a lot of confidence. He knows he\u2019s 27 years old \u2013 he\u2019s still a kid. And I believe Costa is a tough fighter, but he will stop him in three rounds. Too much pressure, too much volume \u2013 I think we\u2019re going to see Costa shooting.<\/p>\n\u201cHe\u2019s going to try and wrestle Marvin because the amount of intensity he\u2019s going to bring into the fight is insane, especially in a small cage,” Abdelaziz continued about Vettori-Costa. “I\u2019m not just saying things to say things \u2013 I see it. Normally, the hard work you put in the gym is going to transfer to the cage, and I think we\u2019re going to see a very, very great, fun fight. (I predict) Marvin by stoppage, under three rounds.\u201d<\/p>\n
Costa is known for his standup and doesn’t wrestle much, so if Vettori is having that much success on the feet to force the Brazilian to wrestle, the fight will be going well for him.<\/p>\n
Although Marvin Vettori’s last two wins and four of his last five are by decision, he does have the ground game to pull off a submission. Yet, Costa has proven to be durable throughout his career so it will be interesting to see if the Italian will be able to pull off a stoppage win and force Costa into wrestling.<\/p>\n
