On April 8th, Israel Adesanya [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/israel-adesanya/]and Alex Pereira [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alex-pereira/] will lock horns for their rematch at UFC 287. The fans are waiting to see the fighters blow the roof off Miami-Dade Arena, Florida. However, the beef between the two began quite a long back. Ever since ‘Poatan’ became successful in defeating the former middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya, the two were engaged in verbal war. The first time the two fighters faced each other was at UFC 281. The gruesome bout between the two toughest fighters ended 2 minutes and one second into round five via punches from the Brazilian fighter. This resulted in Pereira earning the middleweight belt and Performance of the Night Award. On the other hand, Adesanya faced one of the biggest losses of his career. Now that the two are training hard for a rematch, Adesanya has a warning for Pereira. ISRAEL ADESANYA WARNS ALEX PEREIRA AHEAD OF THEIR CLASH ‘The Last Stlylebender’ was having a conversation with The Morning Rumble. The UFC star talked about a variety of topics about himself, including the greatest moments of his life. However, when asked about the benefits he gained from his last loss, Adesanya said, “…I have nothing to lose. The worst has already happened, so it’s like, what’s he gonna do again? The worst has happened. Talking further on the topic, he said, “I’ll tell you one thing, I know how to beat this guy… He knows I know how to beat him.” ‘The Last Stylebender’ has warned Pereira about his potential to beat him. It is not the first time Adesanya has warned ‘Poatan’. The two have made their rivalry quite public over time.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira: Net Worth 2024, Record, Salary, and Endorsements</b></h2>
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Who is Alex Pereira?</b></h2>
Alex Pereira is the current undisputed world champion of the UFC light heavyweight. The Brazilian is also a former undisputed UFC middleweight champion. Pereira made his UFC debut in 2021, after reaching exceptional heights of success in kickboxing. The 'Poatan' also boasts a stellar record in GLORY kickboxing where he became the first simultaneous two-division champion.

His rivalry with <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/israel-adesanya/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Israel Adesanya</a> is one of the most famous storylines in UFC history. He maintained his reputation even after his UFC entry as he gained another point in their rivalry by defeating 'Izzy' at UFC 281 for the undisputed UFC middleweight championship. Although he dropped the title to the Kiwi at UFC 287 a few months later, he had already built a massive stature among the UFC audience.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira's early life and family</b></h2>
Alex Pereira was born on July 7, 1987 in São Bernardo do Campo, São Paulo, Brazil. According to reports, his mother's name is Maria Pereira, and she is a single mother and a housewife. His father's name is unknown.

His younger sister Aline Pereira traced the steps of her elder brother, Alex, and started off training in combat sports. She also turned a professional on 22 July 2017, debuting for the 'WGP Kickboxing' promotion.

She then fought 3 bouts under Glory and transitioned to MMA, joining the 'LFA' like her brother. However, she too began her MMA career with a defeat and currently boasts a 0-1 record in MMA. Reportedly, Alex and Aline share a loving and strong brother-sister relationship.

<img src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Untitled-design-2023-04-05T002727.567.png" />

'Poatan' belongs to the indigenous Brazilian tribe named 'Patax'. He quit school at 12 years of age and took up a job at a tire shop. This was where he developed a debilitating drinking habit. Iced cachaca- a Brazilian rum made from sugarcane - was his poison of choice. By the champion's own admission, he was a heavy drinker by the age of 16, drinking up to a liter of rum a day with some beers as well.

This excessive drinking also meant he got into fights. Pereira was able to handle himself in those situations, thanks to his crude power and sheer size. This eventually led him to take up kickboxing at the age of 21, which also helped him get off his addiction to drinking.

At the gym, where several native Brazilians trained, Pereira discovered his true heritage. This was a wake-up call for him, after having spent most of his childhood and teenage in a more urban setting. Pereira discovered his roots and heritage and adopted the name 'Poatan' roughly meaning 'hands of stone' in the native Brazilian Tupi language.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Alex Pereira's partner and children</h2>
Alex Pereira is a divorcee. His ex-wife's name is unknown. The 36-year-old, however, has two sons from his previous marriage - Alessandro Vidal Silva and Lohan Vidal Silva - both of them likely in their early teenage years.

Pereira was in a relationship with Merle Christine until late 2023. In news that shocked fans, the couple had a very ugly and a very public breakup. According to Pereira, Merle was married while she was with him and this was the reason for their split.

Next, the Brazilian's love life garnered attention again after speculations of a romance brewed between him and fellow Brazilian UFC star Polyana Viana. But those rumors came to an end shortly afterwards.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Alex Pereira's 2024 net worth</h2>
According to several sources, Alex Pereira reportedly boasts a current net worth of a whopping $4M. This comes from his UFC paychecks and endorsements.

Like other UFC fighters, Pereira also receives his salary per fight. 'Poatan' earned the highest salary of his UFC career from his UFC 300 fight, which stood at a total of $2,900,000.

His second-highest paycheck was for his middleweight title defense against Israel Adensanya. The fight earned him $1,767,000 in total. It is also important to note that for both these title fights, he had a reported base salary of a million dollars.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira's career timeline</b></h2>
The 'Poatan' started off his amateur kickboxing career in the year 2009 and ramped up a 25-3 record (all 25 wins via KO). Once, he had gone on record to state that all his losses had come against the same person. Pereira also turned a professional in the year 2012 and made his debut under the Brazilian kickboxing and MMA promotion named 'Jungle Fight'.

<img src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/alex-pereira.jpeg" />

Following that, he joined WGP Kickboxing where he claimed the middleweight Title of the promotion in 2015. Further, he also had a title defense as he finished off Maycon Silva in the second round of his WGP KB 40 bout.
<div class="jsx-1616312977">

At the same time, Pereira was also fighting for the noted, 'GLORY Kickboxing' promotion as well. In 2017, Pereira claimed the promotion's middleweight Championship and made four title defenses to his name. GLORY Kickboxing is also the platform that witnessed the beginning of the historic rivalry between Pereira and the former UFC champion, Israel Adesanya.

In 2021, he also became the first-ever 'GLORY' fighter to boast championships in two divisions (Middleweight and Light Heavyweight). Pereira's 'Glory Kickboxing' record of 12-4 also contains two wins over the former UFC middleweight king, Adesanya.

Pereira made his professional MMA debut under the same 'Jungle Fight' since the promotion hosted events for both kickboxing and MMA. Between 2015 and 2016, he accumulated a 2-1 record from 'Jungle Fight'. After a decorated kickboxing career, Pereira decided to move on to MMA full-time and had his fourth career MMA fight for 'Legacy Fighting Alliance' on 20 November 2020. He also picked up a convincing victory over his opponent, Thomas Powell, with a first-round TKO.
<div class="jsx-1616312977">

On September 3, 2021, it was announced that 'Poatan' had signed into the UFC. The Brazilian was put to work against <strong>Andreas Michailidis</strong> in his first UFC encounter at UFC 268 and passed the test with flying colors, securing a knockout win in the second round, courtesy of a vicious knee. The promotion scheduled him against another exciting middleweight <strong>Bruno Silva</strong> in his second fight which he won via decision.

Pereira fought the noted Middleweight <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sean-strickland/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Sean Strickland</a> in his next bout and knocked him out in the opening round. This fight earned him a shot at the middleweight gold held by Adesanya. At UFC 281 in November 2022, 'Poatan' finished off Adesanya in the final round of the bout with a standing TKO inside the Madison Square Garden.

<img src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago1019157955h-1.jpg" />

However, he lost a rematch with Adesanya at UFC 287 in April 2023 in Miami. Next, he moved to the light heavyweight division where he defeated <strong>Jan Blachowicz</strong> at UFC 291 via a split decision. This fight earned him a shot at the vacant 205 lbs division's title and he knocked out Jiri Prochazka at UFC 295 to claim it. Alex Pereira currently holds a professional MMA record of 9-2-0 in his MMA career and is 6-1 in the UFC.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Alex Pereira's contracts</h2>
Poatan's ascend to the top at lightspeed is not slowing down anytime soon. Alongside the UFC 300 headliner, Pereira has been signed by the promotion for eight more fights.

As he revealed on the MMA Hour, <em>“When I first joined UFC, they gave me three fights. After the first fight, they renewed me for eight, Dana did after the [Sean] Strickland fight. Now, they just gave me another eight and of course, I bring [things] to the table, too. They’re happy with that but they’re very good with us, too, so, we cannot complain. We’re in a perfect relationship.”</em>
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira's partnerships and endorsements</b></h2>
Apart from the fight purse in UFC, Pereira has a few sponsors. Pereira had an NFT partnership with <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/ChXeMZhMfzQ/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">OWNIC</a>. He also endorses the brand AthletiCBD. The Brazilian, like any other fighter in the UFC, gets promotional benefits from UFC fight gear as well.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Alex Pereira's career stats and records</h2>
Pereira's career record currently stands at  10-2-0. So far he has only suffered 2 losses- the first in his professional MMA debut against Quemuel Ottoni at Jungle Fight 82, and the second against his arch-nemesis  Israel Adesanya at UFC 287.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira's major achievements and awards</b></h2>
Understandably, Pereira's decorated combat sports career has earned him a lot of awards to date. Here are some of the notable accolades that the 'Patax' tribe native currently boasts:
<ul>

Alex Pereira: Net Worth 2024, Record, Salary, and Endorsements

<h3 style="text-align: center"><b>Israel Adesanya: Net Worth 2023, Record, Girlfriend, and More</b><b>
</b></h3>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Israel Adesanya: Net Worth 2023</b></h2>
The former Middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya, is undoubtedly one of the most noted figures in the entire UFC. While many have called out the promotion for allegedly underpaying its athletes, Adesanya may call himself an exception to this. As per the latest reports, the Nigerian-New Zealander boasts a net worth of around $4M.

[caption id="attachment_1634411" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-1634411" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago0043083391h.jpg" alt="Israel Adesanya" width="1920" height="1357" /> UFC 243 OPEN WORKOUTS, Israel Adesanya trains during a UFC 243 open workout session at Federation Square in Melbourne, Thursday, October 3, 2019.

Adesanya joined the UFC back in December 2017. Since then, it has been quite a glorious ride for 'The Last Stylebender'. After crowning himself as the Middleweight champion in 2019, Adesanya went on to become one of the highest-paid athletes in the UFC. 'Izzy' had his last fight at the UFC 281 on 13 November 2022, where he received a base salary of about $1M for the fight against <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alex-pereira/">Alex Pereira.</a> 'The Last Stylebender' received a further $800k apart from his $1M basic salary, which made it his biggest UFC fight purse which stood at a massive $1.8M.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Israel Adesanya's Early Life and Family</b></h2>
Adesanya was born in Nigeria. His father, Oluwafemi earned his livelihood as an accountant and his mother, Taiwo worked as a nurse. 'Izzy' was the eldest of his five siblings. He went to Chrisland School, Opebi, and also got himself enrolled in the Taekwondo club of the school. His mother later got him out of there after he sustained an injury.

Adesanya also spent 10 months in Ghana since their family relocated. However, his parents wanted him to get better quality higher education and sent him to Rotorua in New Zealand. Adesanya was just 10 years of age at that time. Although Adesanya didn't take any interest in sports after joining Rotorua Boys' High School, his choice was altered when he faced regular bullying in his high school years.

</div></blockquote>
