From the end of 2021, Pereira has played 10 matches at UFC. 9 matches took place at big events. Pereira may be underestimated in battlefield, but he owns the perfect set of striking skills to defeat all opponents in the octagon cage.
On March 8, Alex Pereira will continue to enter the match against the Light Heavyweight weight championship. His opponent is Magomed Ankalaev. If Pereira won against Ankalaev, he would have a series of 4 successful battles in less than 12 months.
