Appearing to heed recent advice from Daniel Cormier, UFC 313 headliner, Alex Pereira has returned to training in Connecticut this week following his trip to Australia earlier this month — with footage of the Brazilian sparring new GFL (Global Fight League) signing, Dillon Danis surfacing on social media.
Pereira, the current undisputed light heavyweight champion, returns to action in just weeks’ time at UFC 313, as he attempts to lodge his fourth successful defense of his throne in the last 11 months combined.
And taking on the surging number one ranked contender, Magomed Ankalaev — Pereira’s regime was called into question this week by the Hall of Fame inductee, Cormier, who urged him to return from ‘Downunder’ and put the hours in the gym.
