With UFC 305 just around the corner, fans are excited for another night of exciting combat sports. The upcoming PPV event is scheduled for Sunday, August 18, at RAC Arena in Perth, Australia. An extreme bout between the middleweight champion Dricus du Plessis and Israel Adesanya will headline the event. Meanwhile, the latter’s compatriot, Kai Kara-France, will fight Steve Erceg in the co-main event.
UFC 305: Kai Kara-France Vs. Steve Erceg Prediction
The fourth-ranked fighter in the UFC flyweight rankings has a decent 24-11-1 record in his entire MMA career. However, his form doesn’t really seem good, as he has suffered two consecutive defeats.
Having faced a similar fate in his last bout, Erceg will also look to record a victory at RAV Arena. He is currently ranked seventh in the UFC flyweight rankings and boasts a 12-2-0 record in MMA.
While Erceg has the ability to engage in close fights, Kai’s striking power can certainly benefit him in the co-main event bout. However, considering the Kiwi being a little less flexible, Erceg might outclass him to record his 13th MMA career victory.
