Angelo BodettiHOST
Ramazan Timurov will just swing like crazy.
Angelo BodettiHOST
He, he could probably beat that absolute clown shoe, Steve Erceg.
Angelo BodettiHOST
That's about it.
Josh ThomsonHOST
[laughs] You're so fucking ruthless.
Josh ThomsonHOST
It is fucking crazy
Angelo BodettiHOST
...
Angelo BodettiHOST
Steve Erceg, day one, him and Grant Dawson just...
Angelo BodettiHOST
Neither one of them.
Jed MeshewGUEST
And we were all okay with it because we had 300 on the horizon.
Mike HeckHOST
[laughs] And then 301 was Pantoja versus Steve Erceg as the main event.
Jed MeshewGUEST
Dude, it i- arbitrary, arbitrary deadlines, arbitrary goalposts are, like, part and parcel to human experience.
Jed MeshewGUEST
Like, think about how, like, benching 225 is honestly meaningless.
Zach RugerHOST
Didn't fight in '24.
Zach RugerHOST
In 2025, upset Kaya Sakura, which looking back, like, is crazy, and then ultimately lost to Steve Erceg in, uh...
Zach RugerHOST
Where were they at? Uh, they were in Australia.
Zach RugerHOST
Oh, Perth.
Zach RugerHOST
Lost to Perth in May, which look, it, it- I feel like he really could have beaten Steve Erceg there if he really dialed it up, but he just couldn't.
Zach RugerHOST
90 significant strikes is good, but you know, it is what it is.
Zach RugerHOST
Tim usually goes in pairs here.
Jed MeshewHOST
Elliott three and two over his last five, also pushing 40.
Jed MeshewHOST
Uh, so for that re- you know, pushing 40 with that record in this weight class, not bad, but he's coming off a decision loss to Steve Erceg in May.
Jed MeshewHOST
Erceg went on to get got, so tough loss for, for Timbo.
Jed MeshewHOST
Chairez four and one over his last five.
Cody SafticHOST
Uh, I mean, Lonier Cavanaugh puts up 97 his last time out.
Cody SafticHOST
Steve Erceg 116, Brandon Royval 145, Alexandre Pantoja 129.
Cody SafticHOST
I, I, I think just like being a flyweight it's all predicated on speed and timing and, and of course with Brandon Moreno his durability as well.
Cody SafticHOST
And I was talking to s- a friend of mine earlier today who's like, "You know the difference between, uh, Tim Elliott," who's also on this card, "and a Brandon Moreno is that Tim Elliott's a get in [chuckles] and get out kinda guy, and he's either gonna finish you quick or, you know, he'll roll over and get finished himself." But that's allowed him to fight, you know, near into his 40s, whereas a Brandon Moreno doesn't usually get in and get out very quickly.
Cody SafticHOST
He's just really not known as a big power guy, and Brandon Moreno, cast iron Mexican durability, to see him rocked that bad was bad.
Cody SafticHOST
Then also he hurts himself in that finishing sequence, has an injury, can't get up, and then the fight's stopped.
Cody SafticHOST
More concerning than even both of those is the fight prior to that with Steve Erceg.
Cody SafticHOST
Like, yeah, he won, but boy, oh boy, Erceg's a fairly limited guy, a- albeit he's ca- capable of testing the best guys in the game.
OlanHOST
He's just throwing everything behind those fucking shots, and it's, it's tough.
OlanHOST
And, uh, unfortunately for all of us, about to do a shot, uh, Steve Erceg decided to play the game, and sometimes you don't wanna play the game if you're in there with a fucking master of said game.
OlanHOST
The game we're talking about, if you weren't paying attention on Saturday, is, uh, called brawling, and Steve shouldn't have done that.
OlanHOST
He should have really, uh, really committed to the bit, really committed to the takedowns and the ground game, and, uh, just suffocating his opponent against the cage, stealing some of that energy and power away from him.
OlanHOST
I'll take the lead on this one.
OlanHOST
A proper Tuesday.
OlanHOST
Um, it was absolute violence for as long as it lasted, wasn't it, boys? Like, it, it was only 11 strikes landed from Steve Erceg, but it felt like a lot more watching live, and 32 landed from the opposition of, of Ramazan Timurov.
OlanHOST
Timurov came out like a man who had somewhere to be after the fight, man.
OlanHOST
Uh, so yeah, Magomed Ankalaev, it's a full house sweep on this one.
OlanHOST
In the next one, the co-main event of the evening, we have Stevie Sigs, as I like to call him, Mr. Steve Erceg, coming in here against Ramazan Timurov.
OlanHOST
Nano, my brother in Christ, tell me, how do you see this one playing out?
EmilianoHOST
Sheesh, I see this one being a gritty matchup, my brother.
EmilianoHOST
5'8".
EmilianoHOST
He's got a five-inch, five-and-a-half-inch reach advantage over his opponent, who we know is gonna wanna go out there and use his wr- uh, wrestling and grappling advantages.
EmilianoHOST
But Steve Erceg is a true mixed martial artist.
EmilianoHOST
He is a slight end favorite, at least on tapology, my biblical truth.
OlinHOST
'Cause Amir Albazi, Brandon Moreno, Kevin Borjas, Mitch Raposo, and Sumudaerji are, are the next few names.
OlinHOST
And then to finish it off, we got Steve Erceg, Alex Perez, and Joseph Morales.
OlinHOST
Joseph Morales, I- I'm sorry, I love Popo.
OlinHOST
I think he's great.
