“Landed More Than Izzy” – UFC World Goes Berserk As Alex Pereira Engages With Female Journalist in Heated Sparring Session

Alex Pereira is riding high on his last win against his arch-rival, Israel Adesanya. This happens to be his third consecutive victory against ‘The Stylebender’ summating their past encounters in kickboxing. And now, at the record of 7-0 with 4 undefeated matches in the UFC, the ‘Poatan’ is taking it easy. Quite rightfully so.

The Brazilian gifted the UFC fans one of the most spectacular finishes of 2022 and took a hold of the reigns of the middleweight division. And recently, a clip surfaced online where Pereira can be seen engaging in a sparring session with his media presenter girlfriend. The clip managed to draw a lot of attention while evoking several amusing responses from the UFC fans. And given the massive fanbase Pereira has amassed following his victory, it didn’t take long for this clip to grab all the eyes.

The 35-year-old holds a reputation of being all serious and vigilant most of the times. Hence, the fans are not used to see the lighter side of him that often.

But it appeared that Pereira was making an exception here in this sparring session with his love interest. And this sight was a welcome sight for all the fans who rarely get to see this side of the ‘Poatan’.

When reacting to this clip, the fans subtly poked fun at a few of Pereira‘s previous rivals by equating them to the media presenter and judging her to be better than them.
