LAS VEGAS – Alexandre Pantoja wants to get his hands on the champion one more time. The UFC flyweight contender is hoping to land a rematch with Deiveson Figueiredo following Pantoja’s decision win over Manel Kape at Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 184 . Pantoja (23-5 MMA, 7-3 UFC) defeated the former Rizin FF champion and bounced back from his defeat to Askar Askarov in July 2020. Pantoja kept the champion in mind while fighting Kape, as he desperately seeks to avenge his “Fight of the Night” defeat to Figueiredo, which went down before Figueiredo became champion. “All the time I’m fighting with Manel, I’m thinking Deiveson Figueiredo,” Pantoja told reporters at the UFC Fight Night 184 post-fight news conference.
