Brendon Marotte looks to dominate at Combat Zone 70, land on Dana White’s Contender Series
In just over a year as a pro, featherweight up and comer Brendon Marotte has managed to have just about a solid start as one could hope for.
In five fights so far, Marotte has won them all, finishing every opponent but one in the process.
“It’s going good this past year,” Marotte told MMAWeekly.co. “Every camp I’m learning and I’m getting better. I have four out of five wins from finishes. I’m really pumped. I’m doing really well, and there’s definitely more to come.”
Over the course of this past year, Marotte feels he’s made both large improvements and the small adjustments needed to continue his success into his second year as a pro.
“It’s definitely been both,” Marotte told MMAWeekly.com. “I’ve made major jumps in certain areas, and I’ve made tiny corrections that add up. I’ve gotten rid of bad habits and doing things differently. It’s definitely a combination of both.
“I’m a very well-rounded fighter, which you have to be nowadays because everyone knows everything. I’m proud of being a well-rounded fighter, but definitely my forte is striking; that’s where I like to fight and where I feel the strongest.”
This Friday in Manchester, N.H., Marotte (5-0) will look to keep his winning streak going when he faces Adli Edwards (5-1) in a main card 145-pound bout at Combat Zone 70.
