Alexandre Pantoja vs. Kai Kara-France flyweight title fight booked for UFC 317

The next UFC flyweight championship fight is set.

On June 28 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Alexandre Pantoja will look to defend his title against challenger Kai Kara-France at UFC 317.

UFC CEO Dana White announced the news Tuesday on Instagram as part of a series of fight announcements.

This will be the second time Pantoja (29-5 MMA, 13-3 UFC) and Kara-France (25-11 MMA, 8-4 UFC) share the cage, although everything about this fight is completely different. The pair fought on Season 24 of "The Ultimate Fighter" in a two-round exhibition that Pantoja won by unanimous decision.
