Brendan Allen and Marvin Vettori recently traded punches following the PFL 8 event on Friday night at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood in Hollywood, Florida.

According to MMA journalist Alex Behunin on X, 'The Italian Dream' attempted to attack George Tokkos, a teammate of Allen at Kill Cliff FC, for reasons that remain unclear, igniting a chaotic brawl in the casino area. UFC lightweight Michael Johnson, who was on hand, attempted to calm things down, but Allen intervened, throwing a flurry of punches at Vettori.

Both middleweight fighters were scheduled to square off in the main event of UFC Vegas 90 this past April, but 'The Italian Dream' had to pull out from the fight just weeks before the event due to an injury.

Vettori has been inactive since suffering a decisive unanimous decision loss to Jared Cannonier at UFC Vegas 75 in June 2023. Meanwhile, 'All In' is riding an impressive seven-fight win streak and is slated to co-headline UFC Paris on Sept. 28 against Nassourdine Imavov.


When Brendan Allen brushed off Marvin Vettori's critique of his performance

After Marvin Vettori withdrew from UFC Vegas 90, Chris Curtis stepped in on short notice to face Brendan Allen. 'All In' redeemed his previous loss to Curtis by securing a close split decision victory.

Following the fight, Vettori took to X to criticize Allen for calling out UFC middleweight champion Dricus du Plessis, questioning the rationale behind making such a challenge after a fight that was so closely contested.

Check out Marvin Vettori's post below:

During the UFC Vegas 90 post-event press conference (via MMA Fighting), 'All In' responded to Vettori's comments and criticized him for pulling out of their scheduled bout:

"He’s irrelevant. He can’t even make it to a fight. He don’t want to fight. He can go on, he’s old news. We’re going up. Pillow fists. He could have got the business tonight, he could have got it this week, he could have gotten it in Miami... Who’s he put away? Get the f**k out of here. We ain’t worried about f***king Marvin."
