Vince Morales hopes to finish Elijah Smith at UFC Vegas 102
Although Vince Morales used to train with Elijah Smith, he doesn’t think that matters at all for their fight.
However, Morales believes his UFC experience and skills will be the difference as he’ll be able to get a stoppage win over Smith.
“I think we match up real well, he reminds me of me when I was younger. I think the first round will be a little tit-for-tat, but after that, I think I will put it on him,” Morales said. “If he’s not out in the first, I’ll look to put him in out in the second, if not the third, and if he’s still not out in the third, I’ve done everything to get a decision win.”
Should Morales get his hand raised at UFC Vegas 102, the goal is to be active this year and hopefully get a ranked opponent by year’s end.
“I want four fights, four wins, I will take three fights and three wins. I’m not getting any younger, my dad keeps reminding me of that. So, the more active I can stay in these next few years the better for me,” Morales concluded.
