Claiming talks are already underway for him to face Magomed Ankalaev again, Alex Pereira has been encouraged to bring ‘Poatan 2.0’ to the Octagon with him in his next outing with the Russian by the Brazilian’s team of coaches.
Pereira, a former undisputed middleweight champion, lost his light heavyweight crown over the course of last weekend at UFC 313. Dropping a unanimous decision (48-47, 48-47, 49-46) loss to the surging challenger, Ankalaev, Pereira argued the decision immediately.

“Guys, I’m back home,” Alex Pereira said on his YouTube channel.
