UFC flyweight champion Alexandre Pantoja thinks Steve Erceg’s title shot is a case of timing.
It came as a surprise to many that Erceg wound up getting the next shot at Pantoja after notching just his third octagon win with a knockout of Matt Schnell at UFC Fight Night 238. He challenges Pantoja for the flyweight title in the UFC 301 headliner May 4 in Rio.
While Pantoja (27-5 MMA, 11-3 UFC) also didn’t foresee Erceg (12-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC) being his next opponent, he argued that everyone is...

Former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland says he has everything he wants in life, but still struggles with mental health issues and thoughts of harming other people.
Despite openly admitting he has unresolved childhood trauma, Strickland (28-6 MMA, 15-6 UFC) doesn’t believe therapy will help get him to a better mental state.

Read the Full Article HereLAS VEGAS – Long before Mike Davis began making a name for himself in the UFC’s lightweight division, he was a kid from New York struggling with thoughts of self-harm as a result of bullying.
Today, Davis (11-2 MMA, 4-1 UFC) is an incredible mixed martial artist, who just recorded his fourth-consecutive victory at UFC Fight Night 239 by stopping Natan Levy in the second round with an arm triangle choke.
It was the first time anyone finished Levy (8-2 MMA, 2-2 UFC). Next, Davis aims to...
LAS VEGAS – Chelsea Chandler’s ‘Week from Hell’ actually ended on a high note.
At UFC Fight Night 239, Chandler (6-2 MMA, 2-1 UFC) became the first to defeat fellow bantamweight Josiane Nunes (10-2 MMA, 3-1 UFC) in the promotion. She did so by unanimous decision.

Add Kamaru Usman to the list of fighters that think Belal Muhammad deserves the next title shot.
Muhammad, who’s on a 10-fight unbeaten streak, has been heavily campaigning for a shot at UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards, but a fight is yet to materialize for him. The only asterisk in his run is a no contest against Edwards in March 2021.
Former champion Usman agrees with Muhammad (23-3 MMA, 14-3 UFC), and sees him as the most logical option next for Edwards (22-3 MMA, 14-2...

Arman Tsarukyan thinks he’s a bad matchup for UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev.
Tsarukyan (21-3 MMA, 8-2 UFC) made his UFC debut against Makhachev (25-1 MMA, 14-1 UFC) in April 2019. He lost a competitive Fight of the Night decision, and has since gone 8-1, with wins over the likes of Damir Ismagulov and Beneil Dariush.
Tsarukyan is booked to fight Charles Oliveira (34-9 MMA, 22-9 UFC) at UFC 300 on April 13 – a matchup that was dubbed a No. 1 contender by UFC CEO Dana White. But...
