"In my division, even a top-10 fighter can give a tough fight to the champion, so Erceg can win the belt, but I'm preparing to prevent that from happening.
I don't want to be a lazy champion. This will be my third title fight in the last year. I train a lot and I'm tired, so after this fight 100% I'll take a vacation. But I can't wait to fight this guy, he's young, huge and strong. He has wrestling and boxing - it's perfect for me," - quotes Pantoja MMA Junkie.
Recall that the Brazilian and the Australian will fight in the main event of the show UFC 301, which will be held on the night of May 4 in Rio de Janeiro.
