Looks to stay perfect vs. Jackson
Marcos will take on Montel Jackson in a bantamweight bout at UFC Des Moines on May 3, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Marcos is a perfect 4-0 in the UFC and remains undefeated as a professional after besting Adrian Yanez via split decision back in December. He has a tall task ahead of him, however, as his next opponent Jackson -- a gifted striker -- has won five straight dating back to 2020 and just win his last fight 18 seconds into the first round. This should be a highly entertaining bout between two elite Bantamweights.

Remains undefeated as pro
Marcos defeated Adrian Yanez via split decision (29-28, 28-29, 30-27) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Tampa, Florida.
ANALYSIS
Marcos managed to remain undefeated as a professional, but boy did he have to work for it. Both men had their moments in what was a back-and-forth fight. Marcos started quickly before Yanez regained the momentum in Round 2. To Daniel's credit, he recognized an opportunity and flipped the script with a pair of Round 3 takedowns to secure the win. While it's impossible to argue with the results thus far, we need to see Marcos matched up against some high-end competition before we can get a true read on his future long-term potential.
