Booked for his return at UFC 313, Alex Pereira admits he has one keen eye on expected proceedings between Jon Jones and current interim heavyweight champion, Tom Aspinall — claiming he is open to a super fight with the British favorite for gold as soon as this annum.
Pereira, the current undisputed light heavyweight champion and a former middleweight titleholder during his gold laden run with the promotion, is set to headline UFC 313 in March, looking to settle his lengthy grudge with surging number one contender, Magomed Ankalaev.
Most recently landing his third successful defense of the 205lbs championship back in October of last year in the main event of UFC 307, Pereira stopped surging contender, Khalil Rountree in a bloody barrage at the Octagon fence in the fourth round.
