Mariscal also has a diverse mixed martial arts background. In his first UFC bout, he out-landed Peek 71-51 while also earning four takedowns.

Jenkins is the superior prospect. With that said, this line might have moved too far in his favor. Mariscal has gone to war with UFC veterans like Youssef Zalal, Pat Sabatini and Bryce Mitchell in the past, so throwing a dart on him deserves consideration.
