Ahead of his return at UFC 313, Alex Pereira has emotionally revealed how an Australian fan of his has overcome his recent battle with cancer — and is now more than three months free from the disease, after the Brazilian shaved his head in support of him at the end of last year.
Pereira, the current undisputed light heavyweight champion, will return to action next month in Las Vegas, headlining UFC 313 in a massive grudge fight against surging contender and former vacant title chaser, Magomed Ankalaev.
And on social media this afternoon, Pereira shared a touching post on his official Instagram account, revealing a massive fan of his — whom went viral at the end of last year after he shaved his head in support as he battled cancer, is not three months free from the disease.
