UFC 310, set for December 7 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, will showcase an electrifying flyweight title fight as Alexandre Pantoja defends his belt against Kai Asakura. UFC CEO Dana White confirmed the co-main event, which adds further excitement to the final UFC pay-per-view of 2024.
Pantoja returns for his third title defense after his dominant victory over Steve Erceg at UFC 301 in May. As a proven force in the flyweight division, Pantoja brings his experience and versatility into the octagon, hoping to solidify his reign as champion.
His challenger, Kai Asakura, steps into the UFC with a rare and monumental opportunity—fighting for the title in his octagon debut. The former RIZIN champion boasts an impressive 21-4 record with 13 knockouts. Known for his explosive striking, Asakura has earned notable victories over fighters like Kyoji Horiguchi, Manel Kape, and Juan Archuleta during his time in RIZIN, making him a dangerous contender for Pantoja’s crown.
In addition to the flyweight showdown, UFC 310 will feature a key heavyweight matchup between Ciryl Gane and Alexander Volkov, with both fighters looking to make their case for title contention. Also on the card, undefeated featherweight Movsar Evloev will face Aljamain Sterling, while former light heavyweight title challengers Anthony Smith and Dominick Reyes are set to clash.
UFC 310 promises to deliver a thrilling night of action, headlined by Pantoja vs. Asakura, as the promotion closes out its pay-per-view schedule for 2024 with some of the biggest names in MMA.
