Frankie Saenz has had a long path to the UFC. He started MMA at the age of 29 back in 2009 and it took him five years to get to the UFC. After an impressive start in the organization of 3-0, Frankie Saenz soon took a hard turn south going on a three-fight losing streak, which included losses to Urijah Faber and Eddie Wineland.
Frankie Saenz did manage to bounce back with a pair of wins but Marlon Vera put a halt to that streak as well. A loss here, at the age of 39, could mean a lot of damage and probably the end of journey for Frankie Saenz.
On the other hand, Jonathan Martinez doesn’t enter the fight on any different note when compared to Frankie Saenz. He too, like his opponent, just snapped a two-fight winning streak in a loss to Andre Ewell.
Just like Frankie Saenz he too hasn’t had the best of the times in the UFC having gone 2-2 in his last four. This will be an important fight for him and he too might get axed if he loses here. This will make the fight very competitive.
After the addition of Frankie Saenz and Jonathan Martinez the fight card goes:
