If we can just add in, about Alex Pereira and his left hook. It's one - it's probably the best strike in MMA at the moment. He literally touches anybody with the left hook, bink, and they go over.
Pereira will fight Jiri Prochazka in the main event of UFC 303 on June 30. The first fight between Prochazka and Pereira, which took place in November 2023 at UFC 295, ended with Alex winning by technical knockout in the second round. The 36-year-old Pereira has ten wins and two losses on his record.
