Dawodu and his ability to dodge punches while serving up combinations will make it a tough fight for Julian Erosa (27-10). Erosa is looking to continue his good fortune in Vegas, as the 33-year-old has won four of his last five Fight Night appearances. Erosa wanted a shot at higher competition and will get his wish this Saturday in a matchup with Dawodu.
