Magomed Ankalaev skeptical about Alex Pereira wanting rematch

At UFC 313, Alex Pereira lost his 205-pound title to Magomed Ankalaev. Notably, the newly crowned UFC light heavyweight champion is ready to offer an immediate rematch to Pereira. UFC CEO Dana White has also hinted at the possibility of that fight too.

But Ankalaev has now expressed an interesting perspective on a potential second bout against 'Poatan', suggesting that the Brazilian may not be interested in the immediate rematch.

He said:

"I have a feeling you don’t want the rematch after I agreed to August🤓"
