Ecuador's top UFC bantamweight fighter Marlon Vera spoke about his upcoming bout against American Cory Sandhagen.
But I really believe with a solid win on this guy, I’m fighting for the belt. Regardless of all this hype thing – who has more views, who has less views – it doesn’t f*cking matter. You go in there and put the lights out, the views come your way.
