Australian UFC flyweight title challenger Steve Erceg expects that Brazilian fans may throw bottles at him after his win over Alexandre Pantoja.

MMA Fighting website quotes Erceg as saying:

To go out there and get a finish would be amazing and then yeah, I expect bottles to be thrown at me as I leave the arena, but I think that's part of the authentic Brazilian experience. I know that I wasn't on the top of everybody's mind when it came to a title shot, but the way the division was, Pantoja had already beaten all of the challengers. People are injured.
