Alexandre Pantoja vs Steve Erceg - UFC 301 LIVE: Start time, undercard results and round-by-round updates as the flyweight world championship is on the line in the main event plus Jose Aldo returns

Matt Brown has called it a day in a fitting way, no fuss, no nonsense, just as he fought. The UFC veteran has decided to hang up the gloves with the most KOs in welterweight history and we'll forever remember his 'hellbows'. Well played.

One of the away fighters in the lion's den tonight earns a decision win. Drakkar Klose scores 29-28s across the board to beat Joaquim Silva, who finished well and threatened with a couple of late guillotines. There was too much sweat by then to make it stick and he dropped the decision.

I can't wait to see Jack Shore and Paul Craig step into enemy territory tonight and do their thing.

Shore is a much happier man at featherweight but faces a stern challenge at the top of the pre-lims against Joanderson Brito, before Scotland's Paul Craig is a big underdog against Caio Borralho on the main card later.

Two KO wins and two on the scorecards among the early action tonight.

Alessandro Costa defeated Kevin Borges to kick things off with a second-round finish before Ismael Bonfim enhanced his burgeoning reputation by overcoming Vinc Pichel.

Dione Barbosa then claimed a decision before Mauricio Ruffy beat Jamie Mullarkey with a first round knockout.

We're off to Rio de Janeiro tonight, one of the great fight cities of the world. UFC 300 preceeded this card and it was always going to be a tough act to follow, but let's hope the Brazilians can light it up to get the always febrile crowd on their feet. Keep it here for all the action on the pre-lims and then main card before we have the flyweight title on the line a little later.
