Closing out UFC 301 is a flyweight title showdown between reigning champion Alexandre Pantoja and Steve Erceg. The championship fight will serve as main event of the 13-fight card which takes place this Saturday, May 4 from Farmasi Arena in Rio De Janerio, Brazil.

The event will air across the ESPN network, with the main card broadcast starting at 10 p.m. ET on ESPN+.

Pantoja (27-5) aims to defend his title for a second consecutive outing, following an unanimous decision win over Brandon Royval at UFC 296. The 34-year-old defeated Brandon Moreno back in July 2023 to capture the championship. “The Cannibal” has won five fights in a row, with his last loss coming against Askar Askarov in July 2020.

Ecreg (12-1) scored a second round KO win over Matt Schnell in his last fight. “Astroboy” has won three straight at the UFC level, including his debut last June against David Dvorak. Just outside of the top-10 flyweight rankings, Ecreg is an unassuming contender looking to continue early success in underdog fashion.

Here are the betting odds at DraftKings Sportsbook for Pantoja vs. Erceg at UFC 301 on Saturday, May 4.

Money line odds

Pantoja: -185
Erceg: +114
