Alex Pereira continued to add to his legend with his TKO over Jiri Prochazka at UFC 303, making the second defense of his title over the former light heavyweight champion. Pereira is now 2-0 with two TKO wins over Prochazka, likely closing the book on the rivalry. Pereira’s future is uncertain considering there are three weight classes he could feasibly fight at. Let’s take a look at three potential opponents for “Poatan’s” next fight.
Magomed Ankalaev
Ankalaev is who should be next for Pereira at light heavyweight. Ankalaev is riding a 12-fight unbeaten streak and finished Johnny Walker since his title fight draw against Jan Blachowicz.
