Erion Zekthi Calls Shamrock FC 329 Opponent Dillon Tolbert a “Stepping Stone”

Erion Zekthi will look to make it four wins in a row and improve his professional record to 5-1 at Shamrock FC 329. He’ll take on 6-5 Dillon Tolbert in a clash of Missouri regional circuit bantamweights scheduled for March 14.

Zekthi said he’s not taking Tolbert lightly – he’s been training seven days a week for the bout – but he said he still believes Tolbert is a “typical journeyman.”

“He will never leave the local scene, because guys like me exist,” Zekthi told MMASucka. “We will always use him as a stepping stone to get to where we want to go, and that’s the next level.
