UFC middleweight champion Brazilian Alex Pereira revealed who he wants to fight in his first title defense.
I want to fight in April or May. I'll be ready by then. No fight offers have come in, but it will be a rematch with Israel Adesanya or a fight against Robert Whittaker.
Alex Pereira
Pereira had his last fight against New Zealander Israel Adesanya at UFC 281 in November 2022. Alex won that fight by TKO in the fifth round.
Pereira went to the octagon last July at UFC 276 against American Sean Strickland. That fight ended in favor of Alex by knockout in the first round. He has seven wins and one loss in mixed martial arts under his belt.
