UFC Fight Night Moreno vs. Erceg 3/29/25

Gastelum officially moves back up to middleweight, where he’s gone 7-6 with one no contest in 14 UFC appearances at 185 pounds. Last time out, a weight management issue prompted his welterweight bout with Daniel Rodriguez to be moved up a division during fight week, so there is extra pressure on the former Ultimate Fighter winner to have things dialed in and deliver a strong performance here. Before the main card kicks off in the flyweight division, the prelims come to a close with a quality scrap between Edgar Chairez and CJ Vergara. Chairez has gone 1-2 with one no contest in four UFC starts to date, turning in game efforts every time out. A member of the DWCS Class of ’21, Vergara makes his eighth UFC start here, looking to halt a two-fight skid and bring his record inside the Octagon back to level. Jose Daniel Medina welcomes Ateba Gautier to the Octagon for the first time in this battle of DWCS grads in the middleweight division. Bolivia’s Medina earned praise for his resilience from UFC CEO Dana White in his 2023 Contender Series loss, then showed that same grit and tenacity in his August loss to Zachary Reese. Cameroon’s Gautier collected an impressive second-round finish and UFC contract last season, moving to 6-1 overall while extending his winning streak to five.
