The Ecuadorian born Mma fighter Marlon "Chito " Vera is a SouthPaw predominantly via the info we can find online.

However , Vera is what we call a switch stance fighter.  

This means that Vera has been trained to fight from both orthodox (Right Handed) and SouthPaw (Left Handed) . 

In a MMA bout Marlon Vera will switch his stance back and forth and has the ability to fight from either stance effectively while remaining extremely dangerous to his opponent.  

As of 2022 here is a little of what we know about his switch stance and how he utilizes it in mma bouts;

SouthPaw - 

"Chito" is predominantly Left Handed from all the info that we have gathered online. From SouthPaw he is extremely dangerous. 

His Left leg can present itself with very little to no warning or set up whatsoever. And it's loaded with fight ending power. 

He likes to use his Left leg to rip to the body and to the head. A strike from his left leg regardless of where it lands can be fight ending.  

The same goes for his Left hand. 

Vera has a extremely deadly Left hook as well as Straight or Overhand Left. 

One shot from his left hand can spell disaster for his foes. 

"Chito" will pressure a lot from SouthPaw.

 He is patient. If his opponent mis-reads a feint or makes a miscalculation of any kind. Vera can and will unleash his big power. 

Marlon "Chito Vera in SouthPaw is a absurdly dangerous and formidable opponent for any fighter on the planet. 

Orthodox-

 Most Switch Stance fighters have some abilities from their weak or non predominant side when fighting. 

But nowhere near as many as from their predominant stance. 

"Chito" Vera is an exception to this understanding.  

His strikes from Orthodox have power . Not as much as from his predominantly Left side. But still, all the same. They will hurt you. 

His jab from orthodox is with his Left (predominant) hand . It's impressive and a powerful strike. 

He likes to use his Right leg for teep kicks or push kicks up the middle. He can do this from either stance but likes to use it especially from orthodox.  

He can also stick his Right leg upside your head or openly Rip it to the body as well. 

But one thing we notice is from Orthodox he does like to use it (we believe) as a Range Weapon.  To move and push his opponent around.

His right hand has power as well and is not something to shrug off as a front or bluff from orthodox.  Those that make that mistake often will end up victims. 

Conclusion- 

While Chito Vera is Left Handed predominantly.  And ( it's believed) that he Likely uses his left in natural life as a predominant side. 

In a fight or MMA competition ( his trade) Chito has taken the time and training to ensure that both sides of his body have their own unique sets of powers and abilities. 

This especially keeps his opponents confused,  worried , and on edge. 

In the World of Handicapping or MMA betting for the purposes of determination.  Chito is truly switch stance. With just a tad bit of left tendency. 

The switch from left to right in his case is almost effortless.  

So you really do have to bill him as switch stance.
