Muhammad Mokaev, a fighter in the UFC's lightest division, gave his prediction for the title fight between Alexander Pantoja and Steve Erceg .
"Pantoja will win. Erceg is still "green" and not experienced enough to fight Pantoja. Alexander is very, very experienced. In this game, he's a mat dog. He's a real fighter. He comes in, tries to finish you from the first few seconds, and then when he can't finish you, he breaks down. That's the key to winning that I've noticed watching Pantoja, I've trained with him and I know how to beat him. Erceg has really good boxing, but he doesn't have the wrestling. He doesn't have the experience of working for five rounds. Every puncher, once they start fighting, can't punch in the second and third rounds like they did in the first round."
