“UFC 300 Main Event” – Fans Go Berserk as ‘Mini Khabib’ Hasbulla & Alex Pereira Threaten Each Other in Unexpected Phone Call

It is finally here. UFC CEO Dana White had called the now-canceled Mark Zuckerberg vs. Elon Musk fight the “biggest fight in the history of the world.” However, a battle that dwarfs even that encounter and casts it into the shadows, making it appear like an undercard skirmish, has been officially announced. UFC light heavyweight Alex Pereira has decided to take on Dagestani internet sensation, ‘Mini Khabib’ Hasbulla Magomedov.

Of course, the diminutive Dagestani will not really fight Pereira, who is at least three feet taller and about a hundred and fifty pounds heavier than Hasbulla, who has no formal mixed martial arts training (although that didn’t stop him from almost fighting his nemesis Abdur Rozik a few years ago). While the two men did agree to fight each other, it was part of a skit to promote an event, and fans had a field day with it.

Alex Pereira vs. Hasbulla set for Alpha Fight Series tonight

Combat Sports promotion Alpha Fight Series is putting on its ‘Australia vs. the world’ fight card in Dubai, UAE on Friday night. To promote the event, they roped in Alex Pereira and Hasbulla, among the most recognizable and popular figures in the MMA world, to shoot a video.

The clip starts with ‘Poatan’ calling Hasbulla, who proceeds to hang up the first time. A desperate Pereira then re-dials Hasbulla, inviting him to attend the Alpha Fight Series and challenges the Dagestani to see “who is the real champion.” Fans, of course, found it hilarious.

Fans react to Pereira vs. Hasbulla video

Fans took to the comments section and were delighted to see their exchange. Here is a sample of some of their comments.

One fan was glad to see Pereira speaking English:

“English speaking Poatan era unlocked 🗿 Chama”

A fair number of fans hilariously suggested Pereira vs. Hasbulla be the main event of UFC 300:

“This should headline UFC300”

Another agreed:

“Ufc 300 Main event😮😮😂😂”

One fan pointed out the vast size difference between them:

“The best part is hasbula is the height of the doorknob and Alex is taller then the door. What a match it’s going to be 😂”

Another sarcastically predicted Hasbulla will get Pereira out of there within two rounds:

“Fun fact: Hasbulla will K.O poatan inside 2nd round. 😂😂”

Another felt Pereira will not show up as he feared the Dagestani:

“Poatan doesn’t want the Hasbulla smoke 🤣”

Another felt that this could be the biggest fight in history:

“Biggest fight in human history”

Another predicted Hasbulla will stab Pereira at the staredown to emerge the winner:

“Hasbulla by shank in the staredown.”

Clearly, Hasbulla and Alex Pereira are not fighting each other. However, given their star power and recognizability in the MMA world, the Alpha Fight Series was able to put together a promo that would successfully get the attention of the people most likely to watch their event. What do you think about the skit?
