Off the back of his UFC 308 win, Magomed Ankalaev has once more played up a title fight with arch-nemesis, Alex Pereira — claiming any sort of “voodoo” the Brazilian is planning to use in a future pairing will not be enough to defeat him.
Ankalaev, the current number one ranked light heavyweight challenger, most recently featured on the main card of UFC 308 last month in Abu Dhabi, taking on fellow European contender, Aleksandar Rakic in the pair’s expected title-eliminator.
And turning in a one-sided unanimous decision victory, Magomed Ankalaev once more urged Pereira to accept a fight against him for the undisputed gold next, claiming the Sao Paulo knockout artist was continually running from a pairing with him next.
