Fights to watch out for at UFC 305

The fight card is stacked with some incredibly entertaining fights that will have massive implications for their respective divisions. However, there are a few fights that fans must look out for at UFC 305. Mateusz Gamrot vs Dan Hooker promises to be a barn burner. Gamrot is on a three-fight win streak and a win over Hooker will put him into the top three in his division. For Hooker, it is a chance to extend his two-fight win streak.

Similarly, Kai Kara-France vs Steve Erceg is also a crucial fight in the flyweight division. Kara-France will be aiming to get back into the win column after two consecutive losses. Ecreg, on the other hand, will be aiming to return to winning ways after recently falling short against the champion.
