UFC Record Breakdown
Steve Erceg is getting a real test here. Ramazan Temirov is coming back from a one year doping suspension, and he's hungry to prove that ban was just a speed bump. The dude was 2-0 in the UFC before getting popped, with 11 knockouts on his 19-3 record. That's the kind of power that makes flyweights nervous. Erceg knows what it's like to face killers after going five rounds with Alexandre Pantoja for the title back in May 2024, even though he lost that decision. Here's the thing though.
Temirov's power is most dangerous early, but if Erceg survives the first round storm, his cardio and experience could take over in the later rounds.
Erceg has been through some rough patches lately. That knockout loss to Kai Kara-France at UFC 305 in Perth was brutal, getting dropped in the first round. Then he lost another decision to Brandon Moreno in Mexico City this past March. But check this out, he bounced back strong with back to back unanimous decision wins over Ode Osbourne and Tim Elliott. That Elliott win in Perth just this May showed he's still got it. Temirov brings serious finishing ability with those 11 knockouts.
Remember when he starched CJ Vergara with a body shot in under three minutes back in October 2024? That's the kind of power Erceg needs to respect. But Erceg's got the experience edge, especially in deep waters. He's been in there with the best, going the distance in title fights and five rounders. This is a huge fight for both guys. Temirov needs to show he's still that same dangerous fighter, while Erceg is trying to stay in that top ten conversation after some tough losses.
