Marvin Vettori has shared an emotional message for his brother who died in a house fire at the age of 30.
The Italian middleweight, which is number 10 in the 185 pound division of the UFC, went to social media to share a series of photos of him and his brother or sister this morning. His brother Patrick reportedly went into a house fire in his house in Mezzocorona, Italy.
Italian media TGCOM24 reported that police and firefighters were warned when a fire broke out in his apartment in the province of Trento. Unfortunately they came to the scene after Patrick had already died because of the breathing of smoke.
Marvin Vettori sends an emotional message to brother after his death
Marvin Vettori has placed a long tribute to his brother on social media after he learned from his death this morning. The Italian hunter, who fought for the world title against Israel Adesanya and Paulo Costa and Roman Dolidze has defeated, wrote in Italian, but the message was translated by Instagram.
“You were and will always be number 1, my little brother,” he wrote. “You have left a void that cannot be filled, I will love you to my last breath. I don't think I will be the same after today, because maybe I may never have told you, but you have always been my strength.
“You were the smartest and smartest of the 2, you created a wonderful future for yourself and I can't get over it.
“It is said that Jesus calls the most beautiful souls prematurely to have them in heaven with him and then I hope that you are there with him and watch over us with the goodness that always distinguishes you.
“I love you, my brother, and although it is not easy to continue a life without you, it comforts me to know that one day I will be buried next to you. I love you.”
Marvin Vettori has plotted UFC Return
After a long absence of the Octagon that lasted almost two years, Vettori returned to action in the Apex in Las Vegas last month. He recovered Roman Dolidze and lost a close decision to put their series on 1-1.
After the fight, he joked that he might need a 'nonsense trilogy' with Dolidze, because they are one per piece. However, he just wants to stay active after he has taken out of the octhoek for so long to tackle injuries and other problems.

“Yes, nothing too bad, just some cuts and bruises,” he told his followers on Instagram after the loss. “F – man, life sometimes shows you that you can put your heart out and everything you have and you are still inadequate.
“That was a narrow fight, I almost had him in the third, but I think it wasn't enough. Yes man, I don't even know what to say.
'Just thank you [American Top Team] The best in the world, thanks then [Lambert]Everyone and all the sparring partners who helped me. I love you all, love you and thanks UFC. What the F – can I say, Bro? Don't know. That's it. “
