Julian Erosa vs Alex Caceres Fight Preview
Julian Erosa has truly reinvented himself in this second UFC stint. He lost four of six in his first run with the promotion, including the last three. That was at least partially due to a stretch of three very difficult fights. Once he got back in, he has truly made the most of it. Erosa has now won five of six fights in this current stretch and enters a matchup that is primed to keep that streak rolling.
Erosa is truly underrated, at least in terms of what his fighting style brings in terms of entertainment. He is an all action pressuring fighter, that does not relent and has no problem going three extremely hard rounds. That is going to work to his benefit once again in this matchup. If there is a true weakness for Erosa, it is running into fighters with true one punch knock out power. He does not face that in this matchup and we will see Erosa, even if close to even in terms of striking skills on the feet, make it look like he is superior with volume and aggression.
Alex Caceres is somewhat similar to Erosa in that he has found the most success of his very long UFC career in recent years. Caceres has been with the promotion since 2011. He never won more than two fights in a row until 2021 when he stretched a streak out to five straight. That lead to a step up in competition where he lost a clear decision to Sodiq Yusuff. While this matchup is technically a step back down in competition, the stylistic matchup is not a good one for him.
Caceres has not had to face a fighter that will relentlessly pressure him and put on a pace in some time. In fact, we may have to go all the way back to the 2016 Yair Rodriguez fight to find a remotely similar matchup. Despite a ridiculous scorecard for him and a split decision, Caceres was doubled up in the striking in that fight. Caceres will not have grappling to fall back on in this matchup as he has recently, as Erosa is superior in that realm. Caceres is not a fighter that will go away easily, but it is difficult to envision how he will take any rounds in this matchup.
