Current UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira has donated $100,000 to flood victims in southern Brazil.
MMA HOJE quotes Pereira as saying:
Many people from the south are in need because of the rain and floods. Recently, I made a donation out of my own pocket, no one helped me with anything. Apart from the other donations I made, I donated $100,000 of food to people in need here in Brazil. Now I'm also going to donate another $20,000 to the South, for this tragedy that happened.... I do what I can.
Pereira last fought against Jamahal Hill on April 14 at UFC 300 in Las Vegas. Alex won the fight in the first round by technical knockout and defended the championship belt. He has 10 wins and two losses on his record.
