Alexandre Pantoja aims for dominance in UFC 310 title defense against Kai Asakura

Alexandre Pantoja is set to defend his UFC flyweight title against Kai Asakura on December 7 at UFC 310 in Las Vegas. Pantoja, known for his fierce competitive spirit, stated his goal is to dominate his opponents in the octagon. Originally, UFC 310 was to feature Belal Muhammad defending his welterweight title, but he withdrew due to a bone infection. This change elevated Pantoja's fight to the main event, with Shavkat Rakhmonov now facing Ian Garry in the co-main event. Pantoja, who won the title in July 2023, has successfully defended it twice since. He aims to prove he deserves a higher ranking in the pound-for-pound list and recognizes Alex Pereira as the current top fighter.
