It was his first appearance in the UFC since 2018 (when he was fired from the promotion after a 1-2 record). And in 2023, he became the Urijah Faber's A1 Combat champion and a year later was returned to the Dana White League.

2.80Tip and bets
It's hard to bet on Schnell, given his recent retirement and how often he's been beaten up in the UFC. How good Morales is is a question, but in the fight with Idiris, he looked very versatile. And bookmakers strongly prefer him over the veteran. In the octagon, it will be like an old wolf and a young cheetah duel. Schnell can snag a submission in the chaos, but his takedown defense is like a sieve, and Morales hunts for choke points like trophies. It's worth putting Victoria Morales as a submissive, if you want adrenaline, or to finish in the first rounds — it smells of blood and triumph here.
Our betting tip is that Morales will win by submission in 2.40
