Marvin Vettori may have the chance to settle his feud with a middleweight rival he once brawled with in a casino, as he has now called out Brendan Allen for a potential showdown in the octagon.
The infamous brawl took place in August last year following a PFL event. According to various sources, Vettori allegedly attempted to punch UFC light heavyweight Tuco Tokkos at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida. ‘The Italian Dream’ missed the punch, and Allen stepped in, landing a few punches that stumble the Italian. Security intervened to separate them.
Vettori recently made his comeback after more than a year and a half away. He faced Roman Dolidze in a rematch headlining UFC Vegas 104. The 31-year-old suffered a unanimous decision defeat.
