MMA | Quite a change for the Czech fighter. In the UFC, his opponent was injured, the management had to act

Information about the change of opponent began to spread through social networks with the speed of lightning. The American fighter Schnell suffered an unspecified injury, due to which he had to call off the match against the Czech fighter. The management of the UFC had a lot to do in order to find a replacement for one of the four Czech fighters among the elite. And it worked.

Twenty-seven-year-old Australian Steve Erceg, whose debut was originally planned two weeks ago against Clayton Carpenter, will taste the premiere at one of this year’s biggest gala evenings. However, the champion of the home organization EMMA is definitely no slouch. He has 9 wins and only one defeat, which also came six years ago. In addition, Dvořák deals with a submission specialist. He ended 6 winning fights with this style.

How the native of Hořice will deal with the key change will become clear on June 10, when the UFC 289 tournament in Canada is on the schedule. Dvořák will want to break a two-match winless streak. His last loss was last December against Angolan wrestler Manelo Kape, while he also took away a lot of health problems from the match. But you have already been banished.

The pressure before the sixth duel between the elite does not allow. “For me, it’s still the same as when I went 3-0. I’m not under pressure. And that I should fly to fight for a new contract? I don’t allow these things. I’m going there to win,” Dvořák revealed during his Sunday morning flight to Vancouver, where he will be accompanied by domestic champion Patrik Kincl. A few days before the match, the coaching duo of Jan Maršálek and Jan Stach will also join.
