UFC 310 Live Results & Highlights – Alexandre Pantoja vs. Kai Asakura
The UFC returned to T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, NV on Saturday night (December 7) for a UFC 310 card that served as the promotion’s final Pay-Per-View offering of 2024.
Alexandre Pantoja vs. Kai Asakura
The main event saw Alexandre Pantoja attempt to defend his flyweight belt for the third time when he met former RIZIN star Kai Asakura in the latter fighter’s promotional debut.
Asakura’s championship success in his native Japan encouraged the UFC to throw him straight into a world title fight against Pantoja, but “The Cannibal” one again solidified his place as the top flyweight fighter in the world when he choked the UFC debutant unconscious in the second round.

The co-main event was a five-round welterweight title eliminator fight between undefeated talents Shavkat Rakhmonov and Ian Machado Garry.
Rakhmonov was originally scheduled to challenge Belal Muhammad for the welterweight belt at UFC 310 before “Remember the Name” withdrew from the event, and “Nomad” will now face Muhammad at some point next year after taking a hard-fought unanimous decision against Garry.
The rest of the main card saw Ciryl Gane take a controversial split decision against fellow top heavyweight Alexander Volkov, plus Bryce Mitchell and Doo Ho Choi also scored huge stoppage-wins in their respective bouts with Kron Gracie and Nate Landwehr.
