Is Anyone Picking Erceg to Beat Moreno?

[Gabe]

I think that’s a very bold bet, Moreno has separated himself from every other flyweight except Pantoja and Royval. Erceg is coming off of a tough first round KO loss to KKF. Anyone think Erceg wins?

Anything can happen in a fight man, but if I was putting money on it, I'd put money on Moreno.

The other Moreno will beat Moreno next.

Never pick against Moreno, even his warmup is lethal.

I like Erceg to win this fight. I'm a fan of Moreno but I haven't liked what I've seen from him lately. Erceg is good but the loss to KKF might be hard to bounce back from. I like the matchup.

"Moreno has separated himself from every other flyweight except Pantoja and Moreno."

Could you explain? Did you mean Pantoja and Royval?

 

[JustOnce]

I was one of very few who had Erceg over Pantoja before the fight. Erceg is pretty talented.

If Erceg wasn't coming off such a bad loss, I would have backed Erceg over Moreno.

This fight bores me so I don't have a pick nor put a lot of thought into it.

You'd have to favour Moreno in this one, but wouldn't be surprised at all if it went the other way.

 

[TITS]

I'm legitimately worried about the little Eggman. They matched him up with an easier fight then changed opponents on him, I think Moreno might be a bad match-up. He got KO'd pretty bad by Pieface last time out. Should've given him a tune-up fight.

 

[Sean Chowdhury]

coming off a 1st round ko loss I find it hard to believe he can beat moreno, probably gets outpointed

 

[Aurelian]

Yeah I'll go ahead and sign my name to Erceg winning. Wasn't Moreno talking about retirement or something not too long ago? He's already been a champion multiple times and Erceg pretty much has his back against the wall going into this fight career wise. The Pantoja fight showed he's a skilled fighter capable of beating top tier guys.

I think it's all a bit unfair on Erceg.

He should be getting a much easier fight than this, but he's been labelled as a top contender when I honestly don't think he is.

I do agree we can expect Moreno to have a bad performance soon if he's not totally committed - but I don't see that here.

Maybe Moreno retires after a win though?

 

[fortheo]

I'm not flat out picking him, but I won't be at all surprised if Erceg wins. He's very talented. I'm just worried about his chin.

 

[Hymen Crusher]

I think erceg will win. I also know this shouldn't be a main event it's like trump told them to punish mexico

 

[The_Renaissance]

Nah, he's just not elite IMO. I've never been overly impressed with him, he surprised me by making the Pantoja fight close but Reyes made the Jones fight close and IMO, won, and he is far from fucking elite at 205lbs.

 

[Why did you]

Is Anyone Picking Erceg to Beat Moreno? yes Erceg's family

 

[Luckyme]

Erceg has a better chance than most people are giving him credit for. Too much is being made of his KO loss to KKF.

Moreno is a volume striker who doesn’t carry the same power. Meanwhile, Erceg gave Pantoja one of his toughest fights, only losing due to some strategic errors, understandable given his relative inexperience.

If he sharpens a few aspects of his game, particularly his fight IQ, he could be a real threat. Moreno deserves to be the favorite, but I see the odds as much closer, like 55/45 in Moreno's favor.

 

[Lights Out 101]

As much as I want Erceg to win, I think there’s just too much dog in Moreno. He’ll probably find the finish here.

 

[Pequeño Corey]

Watching the prefight show. Erceg trains little kids with pool noodles. Heart warming, but also devastating. @PaddyO'malley know the implications for pool noodle technique.

 

[Tweak896]

Seems like a few think Erceg will take it but a half ass prediction they aren't putting stock into.

Moreno is pretty inconsistent for a top 5 fighter. Honestly if he's not motivated or shows up with a dumb gameplan I wouldn't be shocked to see him lose. He's in the territory where champs who lost their belt lose their drive. Again wouldn't bet on this.
