LAS VEGAS – The first of two title fights that will unfold at UFC 317 is official after Alexandre Pantoja and Kai Kara-France made weight Friday.
Reigning champion Pantoja (29-5 MMA, 13-3 UFC) will go for his fourth defense when he meets Kara-France (25-11 MMA, 8-4 UFC) in the co-headliner of Saturday’s card at T-mobile Arena (ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPN, ESPN+).
Both men did their jobs on the scale at the official weigh-ins. Pantoja hit 125 pounds on the nose, and Kara-France registered the same for his first crack at undisputed gold. The flyweights came to the scale as part of the first four fighters at the official session – along with their lightweight title fight compatriots in the main event.
