Fans go wild after seeing Alex Pereira getting knocked out

Alex Pereira is without a doubt one of the biggest stars in the UFC at the moment. However, before his move to the promotion, he was a renowned kickboxer. He is a former GLORY Middleweight and Light heavyweight champion in kickboxing. However, his recent video of his kickboxing days has gathered a lot of attention. The video features the Brazilians’ first KO loss in kickboxing at the hands of Artur Kyshenko. The Ukrainian defeated Pereira in 2016 and surprised everyone.

Pereira since then has gone on to become a two-division champion in the UFC. One of Pereira’s biggest rivals is former middleweight champion Israel Adesanya. ‘The Last Style Bender’ defeated the Brazilian to reclaim his belt at UFC 287. Before the main event at UFC 300, the former champion made his prediction for the fight.

Israel Adesanya picks his favorite before the UFC 300 title fight

Jamahal Hill is leaving no stones unturned in his preparation before his fight with Alex Pereira. Hill initially won the light heavyweight title but had to vacate it because of an injury. During his absence ‘Poatan’ rose to the occasion and claimed the vacant title after defeating Jiri Prochazka. ‘Sweet Dreams’ will now have the opportunity to reclaim his lost belt. The 37-year-old is taking the help of Israel Adesanya in order to gain an upper hand. Adesanya faced Pereira two times in his career and even managed to beat him once.

In one of his recent YouTube channel videos, the former champion made his predictions. He said, “I’m gonna go Jamahal by knockout, first two and a half [rounds].” He further added, “Jamahal’s going to try to get his fist to Alex’s head, just like he did with Johnny Walker.” Hill was also reminded by Adesanya to be careful of Pereira’s leg kicks as he was returning from a leg injury. Despite staying away from action, ‘Sweet Dreams’ is confident of beating ‘Poatan’ in his next fight. However, his margin of error against him will be very limited. Do you think Jamahal Hill will win the light heavyweight title at UFC 300 next? Let us know in the comments below.
