Magomed Ankalaev's manager predicts the fight against Alex Pereira to happen in 2025
Magomed Ankalaev is also managed by Khabib Nurmagomedov and Islam Makhachev's manager, Ali Abdelaziz. The Egypt native had criticized the UFC's decision to provide the No.8 ranked Khalil Rountree Jr. with a title shot instead of Ankalaev.
However, Abdelaziz hasn't given up on the hopes of providing his client with a shot at the UFC light heavyweight gold. In an interview with ESPN MMA, he predicted that the Pereira vs. Ankalaev clash would happen in 2025.
"It’s bullsh*t, he’s [Ankalaev] not getting a title shot... I believe he’s the best light heavyweight on the planet... Magomed Ankalaev will handle business, Alex Pereira will handle business, and these two guys will fight in 2025."
