Alex Pereira Branded as “Combat Sports Goat” by Fans as Ex-UFC Champ Makes His Intentions Clear for Jiri Prochazka at UFC 295- “Looking for…”

Alex Pereira can be termed one of the most blessed fighters to have ever graced the UFC arena. Pereira since his inception in the Octoganal arena of UFC has fought very few matches but in those, he has already secured the middleweight belt and has defeated three former champions. The glory kickboxing sensation is surely making a ton of buzz in the UFC.

Pereira was a force to be reckoned with in the world of Glory Kickboxing, arguably one of the greatest kickboxers to have ever graced the sport. With multiple belts earned under the Glory banner, Pereira has set his sights on replicating his legendary success within the UFC. He made his intentions abundantly clear through his social media presence.

Fan reactions to Alex Pereira’s pursuit of double champ status

Alex Pereira is gearing up to face the formidable as well as former UFC champion Jiri Prochazka for the interim light heavyweight title. This will be Pereira’s debut in the light heavyweight division and if he secures the belt then he certainly will secure the G.O.A.T status. And ‘Poatan’ seems to be willing to assert that only.

The former middleweight champion took to his Instagram handle to add a photo of himself with his two Glory belts as well as his UFC belt and added that he is waiting to replicate his Glory legacy. He captioned his post “Double champion of GLORY and looking for the second belt of the UFC.”

‘Poatan’s roar took the combat community off-guard as they took to his post to express their opinion. some of the comments of the fans are as follows:-

Glory better strickers than ufc

Let’s go!! Already the people’s champ 

Two-division champ before Izzy 

I can’t trust you if you don’t like Alex.

Greatest fighter in combat sport history. And new. Chama

Double Champ, Two Times 

Let’s get it my guy!!!!

Seemingly, the fans have already termed Pereira as the champion. Fans assert that Pereira is one of the greatest fighters in the UFC roster and can be double champ, However, this time his opponent is as savage as him, and the road to double belt champ will not be a walk in the garden for Pereira.

The road ahead for Pereira

After winning the UFC’s middleweight championship belt and losing it to Israel Adesanya once again, Alex Pereira has set his eyes on the coveted light heavyweight championship belt. To claim the belt he has only one stone on his way and that is Jiri Prochazka. 

Prochazka on the other hand was the former light heavyweight champion and he is also looking for championship status after sacrificing the title out of pure respect due to his shoulder injury. the former champion will be looking to reclaim his status.
