Ankalaev Reacts to Pereira's Decision to Forego December Fight

Russian UFC fighter Magomed Ankalaev has responded to the refusal of Brazilian light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira to fight him in a title bout in December.

Magomed Ankalaev
Willing to fight everyone on short notice but with me, he knows he has to be ready he's not stupid.

Ankalaev last fought Aleksandar Rakic in October of this year at UFC 308, where he won by unanimous decision after the fight went the distance. His professional record stands at 19 wins, 1 loss, and 1 draw, with another fight deemed a no-contest.

Pereira last entered the octagon on October 6 against Khalil Rountree at UFC 307, where he won by technical knockout in the fourth round. He currently holds a record of 12 wins and 2 losses.
