With The Belt Up For Grabs At UFC 301, The Flyweight Division Goes Into The Spotlight As Summer Nears
The flyweight division goes into the spotlight as the calendar creeps toward summer with several crucial and interesting matchups filling out the next few weeks. With both the days of Demetrious Johnson’s dominant reign and the tetralogy between Brandon Moreno and Deiveson Figueiredo now in the past, the 125-pound title picture has perhaps never been more wide-open and interesting.
At present, Alexandre Pantoja is carving out a good title reign, having defended his belt once against Brandon Royval after he wrested the title from Brandon Moreno in 2023.
