MMA Lock of the Night Expert Confident picked Jan 22, 2021 (2 days before fight)
Antônio Carlos Júnior

Carlos Júnior is a big, strong grappler who should be able to close the distance and take Tavares down. Tavares has not faced a grappler of this caliber and has shown vulnerability to being controlled. Carlos Júnior has good durability and should be able to grind out a decision, possibly a submission. At plus money, there is value on him.

"I'm going with Antônio Carlos Júnior to win this fight via decision."

Antonio Carlos Jr. vs. Marvin Vettori

Round 1
The southpaw Vettori steps forward slinging straight punches, but before he can connect, he's poked in the left eye by the outstretched and open left hand of Carlos. Referee Mark Smith pauses the bout as Vettori steps away, blinking the damaged eye. After a few seconds and a visit with the cageside physician, Vettori says he's ready to continue. Carlos lobs out a leg kick and gets clipped on the jaw by Vettori's counter left hand. Vettori scores with a kick to the body; "Cara de Sapato" tries to shake it off. Seconds later, Carlos catches Vettori with another eye poke. Referee Smith warns the Brazilian, and the fight resumes without much of a pause. The next exchange sees Vettori poke Carlos in the left eye with an outstretched finger. Carlos says he can continue, and the ref issues a stern warning to both men to keep their hands closed. Carlos lands a hard outside leg kick, then one to the body as they hit the midway point of round one. Carlos latches on to a single, drives Vettori against the fence but can't spin him down. Carlos switches to a bodylock and holds Vettori on the fence to deliver some low knees. Vettori lands a few short punches, answered by a harder shot as Carlos releases to slug with a right. Carlos gets a rear waistlock with one minute left, turns the corner and converts it to a takedown. Vettori is back on his feet quickly, now defending a headlock/choke setup from Carlos. The Brazilian nearly drops to guard to try a guillotine, but instead thinks better of it and stands to keep Vettori on the fence for the final moments.

Round 2
Carlos gets hold of an early single-leg, pushes Vettori backward and trips him to the ground. Vettori is back on his feet within seconds, now breathing with his mouth open as he swings forward with left hands. Carlos evades and resets to deliver another stiff kick to the body of the Italian. Vettori steps inside to grab a rear waistlock, but Carlos leans his weight against the fence to resist the takedown and stay standing. Vettori releases with three minutes on the clock, and now the middleweights meet back in the center of the cage. Vettori rushes forward with a left hand and Carlos drops levels as he backs up to the fence. Vettori looks for a guillotine, can't get it and instead forces Carlos to the ground. Vettori tries the choke again, but Carlos wags his finger and gives the referee a thumbs-up. Carlos slips out of a brief brabo choke setup and sits up against the fence, trying to slip around and take Vettori's back. Vettori flattens him out and begins scoring with left-handed ground-and-pound. Vettori stands and eats an upkick from Carlos, then kneels in the Brazilian's guard for a few seconds. Vettori stands again with 20 seconds left and spends the last moments kicking at Carlos' legs.

Round 3
Vettori lands a leg kick, one to the body, then rushes Carlos against the fence with a left hand. Carlos immediately spins Vettori against the cage with a bodylock, works for 30 seconds and then trips him to the floor. Carlos may be looking for an arm-triangle choke as he puts his weight on Vettori to flatten him out. Vettori frees his head and arm, rolls to his knees and tries to stand; Carlos manages to keep him down at first, but Vettori eventually gets to his feet. Carlos holds him on the cage, delivering knees to Vettori's legs at the midway point of the round. Vettori separates with two minutes left, and now the middleweights are back to striking in the center of the cage. Carlos' hands are low, inviting Vettori to come forward, but Vettori slips on a kick and has to scramble up before the Brazilian can capitalize. Carlos shoots for a single-leg on the fence with one minute left; he can't take down Vettori this time and has to settle for clinch strikes. After 20 seconds of work, Carlos completes the takedown and then spins to take the kneeling Vettori's back. Vettori blocks the back-take but absorbs a few left hands to the head, now a knee to the body. Carlos finishes the fight attempting a guillotine, and this one will go to the judges.

Vitor Miranda vs. Marvin Vettori

Round 1
Vettori presses out from the center of the cage, keeping his hands in Miranda's face as he backs up the Brazilian to the fence. Miranda slows Vettori's roll momentarily with a high kick, but Vettori comes straight back with even more pressure. Vettori lands a jump knee to the body and swipes a right hand across the face of Miranda, who circles off the fence and lands an inside leg kick. Vettori goes low with a right leg kick, then high on the other side with a kick that Miranda has to block with both arms. Vettori sticks a jab, follows through with a left hand, then comes flying at Miranda with a knee and more punches. Vettori presses "Lex Luthor" against the cage for a few seconds, then the 185ers move back to the middle. Miranda throws a left high kick, but Vettori catches it on his shoulder and converts it for a takedown. Miranda peels away Vettori's hands and climbs back to his feet with 40 seconds left. Miranda lands a good body kick, but when he tries to step inside and follow up, Vettori makes him pay with a stinging right hand.
Jordan Breen scores the round 10-9 Vettori
Brian Knapp scores the round 10-9 Vettori
Chris Nelson scores the round 10-9 Vettori

Round 2
Miranda brings some forward pressure in the first minute of round two, landing kicks and jabs as he backs up "The Italian Dream." Vettori changes levels to try a double and gets brushed aside by Miranda, who does the same on Vettori's next attempt. Vettori lands a heavy body kick, but Miranda keeps coming forward, tacking on more punches and low kicks. Vettori slugs back with a right hand and the middleweights tie up with two minutes left, Miranda now sporting a bloody nose. Vettori gets his back pressed against the fence, but he quickly reverses and drags the Brazilian to the mat. Miranda tries a kimura from the bottom, can't get anything going and has to release. Now it's Vettori working from Miranda's half guard with one minute on the clock; Miranda uses butterfly guard to push away Vettori and jump back to his feet. Vettori catches a low kick from Miranda in the final 10 seconds and completes another takedown.
Jordan Breen scores the round 10-9 Vettori
Brian Knapp scores the round 10-9 Vettori
Chris Nelson scores the round 10-9 Miranda

Round 3
Miranda tries to pressure Vettori again as the final round begins, but this time Vettori is waiting with a short combination, landing three or four quick punches to Miranda's face. Miranda keeps walking after the youngster, landing leg kicks, now a knee to the body. Miranda barely misses with a left high kick as the suddenly tired-looking Vettori circles away, hands by his waist. Miranda lands an uppercut, forcing Vettori to escape off the fence again. Vettori's hands are very low as Miranda comes over the top with a right elbow strike. Vettori sprawls on a shot from Miranda, tries to snatch a guillotine but can't catch the Brazilian's neck. Vettori clinches with Miranda with 90 seconds left, tries to trip but can't bring him down. The Italian's second effort puts Miranda on his back, and Vettori flattens him out from half guard. Miranda has nowhere to go as Vettori bears down on him until the final horn.
Jordan Breen scores the round 10-9 Miranda (29-28 Vettori)
Brian Knapp scores the round 10-9 Vettori (30-27 Vettori)
Chris Nelson scores the round 10-9 Vettori (29-28 Vettori)
