Pereira's rise to prominence in the UFC has been meteoric. Since joining the promotion in 2021, he has captured the middleweight title and the light heavyweight championship. His dominant performances have earned him a reputation as one of the most feared fighters in the sport.

The 36-year-old is set to defend his light heavyweight title against Khalil Rountree Jr. at UFC 307 on October 5.


Magomed Ankalaev calls Alex Pereira a "liar" over title fight claims

Alex Pereira has faced backlash after claiming that Magomed Ankalaev declined a potential title fight at UFC 307.

The announcement of Pereira's next title defense against Khalil Rountree Jr. at UFC 307 came as a shock to many fans and analysts, as Ankalaev was widely expected to be the next contender. The Russian fighter has been on a 12-fight unbeaten streak and has seemingly secured his spot as the top challenger.

In a recent YouTube video, Pereira stated that he had suggested Ankalaev as his opponent to the UFC, but was told that the Russian fighter was not interested.

“A lot of people ask me, I always wanted to fight against Ankalaev. I threw that to the organization. Left it very clear, but Ankalaev didn’t want to fight against me. I don’t know the reason, whether it was the location or if he just didn’t want to.”

However, Ankalaev has vehemently denied Pereira's claims, taking to social media to accuse the champion of lying.

“This man is a liar. He’s making stuff up. I’m going to punish him after I handle my business”
