We’re in the midst of what amounts to an offseason in the MMA world, with the UFC dark for almost a month over the holiday season (although other regional promotions are still up and running, filling the void a bit). With the action in the UFC cage done for 2024, now is the time to look ahead and place our bets on who will be wearing UFC gold around their waists in their respective weight classes when December 31, 2025 rolls around. Next up: 2025 UFC Flyweight Champion.

I often go on about how Alexandre Pantoja is the most overlooked of the UFC’s current crop of champions, and then I go and pick against him here. However, I think that at his age (35 in April) and the battles he’s been through, Father Time is going to catch up to him (this is especially the case at a lighter weight class like 125 pounds).
Enter Manel Kape, a trash-talking, hard-hitting Angolan-Portuguese fighter fresh off a dominant TKO performance at the UFC’s last event of 2024. I can see Kape – based on his performance in the cage and on the mic – getting the next title fight, and I can see him testing the champ’s chin.
2025 UFC Flyweight Champion Future Best Bet: Manel Kape (+700)
