UFC 301 weigh in results
Pantoja vs Erceg

In the electrifying lead-up to UFC 301, all eyes were on the scale as fighters from across the globe stepped up to mark their readiness for battle. Amidst the anticipation and excitement, one name stood out: Jose Aldo, the former featherweight king and bantamweight contender, making his long-awaited return to the octagon, possibly for the final time.


After an absence of over two-and-a-half years, Aldo showcased his determination and discipline by hitting the mark at 136 pounds during Friday's weigh-in, signaling his readiness to square off against Jonathan Martinez in the co-main event. This momentous occasion marks Aldo's comeback following a hiatus that saw him explore the realms of boxing, hinting at a potential farewell from the sport that catapulted him to superstardom.


Aldo's opponent, Jonathan Martinez, mirrored his professionalism by also weighing in at 136 pounds, setting the stage for a clash of titans that promises to enthrall fans worldwide.


In the main event, reigning flyweight champion Alexandre Pantoja and challenger Steve Erceg made championship weight at 125 pounds, setting the tone for a fiercely contested battle for supremacy in the flyweight division. Pantoja, fresh off a successful title defense, aims to further solidify his legacy, while Erceg seeks to etch his name in MMA history with a remarkable ascent to the championship throne.


However, amidst the triumphs, there were moments of adversity, exemplified by featherweight William Gomis's visible struggle at the scale, compounded by reports of pre-weigh-in vomiting. Regrettably, his anticipated bout with Jean Silva was canceled, serving as a stark reminder of the unforgiving nature of combat sports.


As the countdown to UFC 301 draws to a close, anticipation reaches a fever pitch, fueled by the anticipation of epic showdowns and unforgettable moments inside the Farmasi Arena. With all 28 fighters successfully making weight, the stage is set for a night of unparalleled excitement and drama, as warriors from around the globe collide in pursuit of glory and greatness.


In the heart of Rio de Janeiro, amidst the thunderous roars of the crowd, Jose Aldo prepares to pen the final chapter of his storied career, leaving an indelible mark on the annals of MMA history.
