Aldo, a Brazilian legend in MMA, recently re-signed with the UFC and is looking to make a mark in the bantamweight division. Ranked No. 8, Aldo's impressive win streak has put him on the path to a title shot at 135 pounds. On the other hand, Bautista, ranked No. 12, is on a six-fight win streak and aims to secure a victory over Aldo to propel himself into the Top 10.
Another significant matchup at UFC 307 will be between Kayla Harrison and Ketlen Viera in a No. 1 contender's match in the women's bantamweight division. Harrison, a judo gold medalist, transitioned to MMA and has quickly risen through the ranks. Ranked No. 3, Harrison faces a tough challenge in Viera, who is ranked No. 2. The winner of this bout is likely to earn a shot at the title, setting the stage for an intense showdown.
While the full fight card is yet to be finalized, the confirmed matchups promise an action-packed event. With the potential addition of a main event featuring Raquel Pennington defending her title against Julianna Pena, UFC 307 is expected to deliver thrilling fights for fans worldwide.
