Dana White loves that wants to fight everybody.
It only took ‘Poatan’ seven fights inside the Octagon to etch his name in the history books as a two-division world champion, capturing both the middleweight and light heavyweight titles. On October 5, the ‘Brazilian Boogeyman’ will step into the main event spotlight for his third title defense of 2024 when he meets heavy-hitting contender Khalil Rountree at UFC 307 in Salt Lake City.
There, Pereira will put his 205-pound crown on the line following a pair of highlight-reel KOs against former champions Jamahal Hill and Jiri Prochazka.
