Overview
- Erosa told Fanatics View in interviews published Wednesday and Thursday that his featherweight bout with Jeong Yeong Lee at UFC Fight Night 292 on Oct. 31 will be his final professional fight.
- He said he fixed a retirement date so a win would not tempt him to keep fighting and explained that training demands and concern for his long-term health influenced the choice.
- Erosa plans to move his wife and young son back to Yakima on Nov. 18 to help his mother’s business and begin life after fighting.
- The farewell comes after two recent losses — a unanimous decision to Melquizael Costa and a knockout loss to Lerryan Douglas — following a 2024 run of three first-round finishes.
- Erosa told reporters he will emphasize wrestling and cage grappling in the matchup, and he hopes to leave the sport on his own terms while protecting his health and family life.
