Fighters fight

Fighters fight. And Alex Pereira is a fighter to the core. Three times he made the walk in 2024, something practically unheard of for a world champion these days, and each time, he didn’t just win in defense of his UFC light heavyweight title, but he knocked out two former champions in Jamahal Hill and Jiri Prochazka, but a tough contender who gave him some trouble in Khalil Rountree Jr. It was a year to remember, and one you can expect “Poatan” to try to match or surpass in 2025.
