Alexandre Pantoja is cementing himself as one of the best champions in UFC flyweight history.
The Brazilian veteran has defended his 125-pound belt twice, defeating Brandon Royval and, most recently, Steve Erceg. Back in May, Pantoja went to war with Erceg in a very competitive bout that ended with Pantoja getting his hand raised after 25 minutes of fighting. It was a gusty performance from Pantoja, who showed his durability and great grappling skills.
You can watch the Pantoja’s second UFC flyweight title defense in the video above.
Pantoja (28-5 MMA, 12-3 UFC) defends his 125-pound belt against former RIZIN bantamweight champ Kai Asakura (21-4 MMA, 0-0 UFC) in the main event of UFC 310 on Dec. 7 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas (ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPN2, ESPN+).
