- Erceg is favored over Temirov, with a prediction for a decision win.
The co-main event of UFC Fight Night 282 will feature a flyweight bout between Steve Erceg and Ramazan Temirov. Erceg, a former title challenger, is seeking his third consecutive victory after his bid for the championship fell short.
Temirov enters the octagon with a formidable 11-fight winning streak, aiming to continue his undefeated run in the UFC. He has secured wins in his previous two appearances.
Despite Temirov's explosive striking, concerns exist regarding his stamina and grappling depth, especially after a year-long layoff due to a suspension. Erceg's extensive experience and tougher schedule give him an edge.
An expert pick favors Erceg to overcome early challenges and win by decision, utilizing his boxing and close-range elbow skills. The fight is expected to begin around 2:10 p.m. ET and will stream on Paramount+.
