lingering issues, I think he\u2019s capable of handing Aliev his first loss and is a tempting underdog pick at nearly 2-1 odds. <\/p>\n<p>Thomas Petersen to Defeat Valter Walker (+142)<\/p>\n<p

latest submission victim if he spends too much time playing around on the ground, but if he\u2019s able to extend the fight a bit then \u201cThe Clean Monster\u201d will be forced to show whether or not his gas tank has improved.<\/p>\n<p>Steve Erceg to Defeat Ramazan Temirov (-112)<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-25\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"82\">Everyone seems to agree that Erceg was rushed into a title shot after just three UFC victories, and his loss to Alexandre Pantoja kicked off what turned into a three-fight skid.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/01kyab9ynr46j2rhpd2j.jpg\" alt=\"Alexandre Pantoja (red gloves) fights
