Marlon "Chito" Vera scored a well-deserved unanimous-decision victory to close out UFC on ESPN 35 from the Apex facility in Las Vegas on Saturday.
Neither fighter failed to deliver in the excitement department. The two bantamweights went at each other for a solid five rounds. It was just Vera's power that served as the difference.
Font got off to his typical strong start in the first round. He was able to establish his jab and forward pressure with Vera offering little reprisal to stop him.
That changed in the second as Vera started to get more comfortable.
