“I’m a pal with Pantoja. He’s my boy. I like him so much. Exhausting employee, devoted man, at all times within the gymnasium, however I didn’t like this struggle in any respect. This man (Erceg), he’s harmful however solely three fights within the UFC. No person is aware of who he’s. He’s not going to promote any pay-per-views. I feel Pantoja wished dangerous to struggle in Brazil as a result of it’s his residence, proper?”
Persevering with Moicano believes the struggle was a nasty determination:
“However I don’t assume it was very good within the enterprise aspect. Folks don’t notice how this can be a enterprise, proper? We have to create a narrative behind the fights. Like Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington, they bought greater due to the meat. UFC profited off that, they profited off that. When you see Pantoja combating one other man that no one is aware of, I don’t assume it’s good for the present. In my e-book, Pantoja is best than him all over the place.”
Renato Moicano concluded with (h/t MMAJunkie):
“I’m not likely excited to look at the struggle. I wish to watch Pantoja in opposition to Mokaev. I do know lots of people give trash to Mokaev as a result of he had a troublesome struggle in opposition to Perez, however I feel he would promote the struggle extra.”
