Alexandre Pantoja, the newly crowned UFC flyweight champion, revealed that he worked as an Uber Eats driver and competed in jiu-jitsu tournaments to make ends meet before his title win over Brandon Moreno. Pantoja had to find a second job during the COVID-19 pandemic and sent his family back to Brazil due to financial difficulties. Despite facing challenges and being sick before his fights, Pantoja's determination paid off as he won the championship and a bonus that changed his life. He credits his coach and is open to a rematch with Moreno but also wants to face fresh challenges in the division.
