Eryk Anders spoke with MMAjunkie after his win over Tim Williams at UFC Fight Night 135. Highlights are below:

On recovering from his sluggish first round: “Coming out for that second round, I knew it was imperative to set the tone, establish dominance and make him break a little bit. I think I did that. He hit the ground a few times, he got back up, so I think there at the end of that third round, he thought he’d be safe with that technical stand-up. Man, I just saw his head there, waited for that knee to come off the ground, and the extra point was good.”

On calling out Elias Theodoreau after the fight: “Elias is Canadian, and I think he’s from Toronto, I’m sure he wants to fight in Toronto, so holla at ya boy.”
