David Martinez (27, Mexico), who has a unique history as an orthopedic surgeon, has built a golden tower of 10 consecutive official games. Martinez, who has won three consecutive games since entering the UFC, is now aiming to enter the top bantamweight rankings.

Martinez beat ninth-ranked veteran Marlon Vera of Ecuador (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) in a bantamweight match of the UFC Fight Night: Moreno vs Cabana event held at Mexico City Arena CDMX on the 1st (Korea time).

Martinez, known as an orthopedic surgeon and called "Doctor," caused a stir in beating Ranker 11 months after his UFC debut.

It was an extraordinary event. From the beginning of the game Martinez neutralized Vera's powerful firepower.

The unique clever hand-to-hand fight stood out. Martinez inserted a series of sharp jabs and one-two straights into Vera's face as he tried to press forward. Vera's counterattack timing cut the flow with a quick step. In particular, he snatched Vera's kick in the middle of the first round, laid her on the floor, and poured out a foundation to completely dominate the baseline.

In the second round, Martinez also targeted Vera with a precision strike. Martinez hit the mark with a combination of alternating patting of the body and face. Vera's head was tilted back by a big shock.

Martinez's game management was much more skillful. Vera hit the head kick and threw a game-changer, but Martinez endured it and immediately scored a takedown. Vera got back on her feet, but was blocked by Martinez's elaborate distance control and did not produce a significant effective hit.

However, there was also a crisis at the end of the third round. Vera, aiming to turn the tables, pushed Martinez roughly. A powerful batting streak hit Martinez's face.

Martinez played the game calmly until the end. He finished the game without allowing a finish by opening the distance. All three judges declared Martinez's decision to win.

According to the UFC, Martinez said in a post-fight interview, "Vera was a really tough opponent. "The punch was very powerful," he admitted, adding, "UFC is the best organization in the world. "I'm ready no matter who they stick to," he said.

Meanwhile, in the main event, Shin Sung-Ronnie Kavanagh (26, England) beat former flyweight champion Brandon Moreno (32, Mexico) throughout the fifth round and won a unanimous decision. Kavanagh, who was urgently deployed as a substitute a month before the competition, caught a big fish and expressed his strong ambition to become a champion within two years of his UFC debut.
