Brazilian UFC fighter Alex Pereira reacted to league middleweight champion Israel Adesanya's victory celebration where the New Zealander teased his son.

Pereira and Adesanya fought in a rematch on April 9 at UFC 287. In that confrontation, Alex suffered a second-round knockout loss and lost his middleweight championship belt.

I don't know I wouldn't do the same. I don't know, it is seven years ago, he was enduring it and I saw his joy that he had after the knockout because this was his dream. That was his dream and he made it, but we're comparing him [his son] with a child who was five-years-old at the time, right? I don't have that mind.
