🚨 Alex Pereira plans to move back down to 205 for an immediate title shot if he loses to Sergei Pavlovich:
"Everyone knows I'm not as heavy as those heavyweights. I'm not going to stay there taking a beating with that disadvantage.
I'd go back to my division, where I was already well adapted. It would be [straight] for the [light heavyweight] belt."

@drybacc Tell who on the list has ko power like rumble at lhw?? Jon was in the crowd for Reyes vs Jan but saw the ko power and was like nah afterwards. He flat out said he wasn’t gonna fight tom but would fight a bum in Derrick Lewis
@MMABlonker68960 The only obvious one Islam ducked is ilia and prates
“If I fight ilia they’ll say I beat a featherweight” lame excuse
“Prates need to fight morales to show who number 1 contender is” like prates didn’t just beat the two past champs
@QuisqueyanoMMA Only problem is it makes Volk resume look a tad weak cuz Diego hasn’t beaten anybody. If the second title shot went to Aljo Volk resume would look way better than already does
Michael Morales is a brainless brawler and this seems to work only cuz he's yet to beat any former champ or a high level fighter
Prates just beat two former champs back to back and will knock this power merchant out within 3 Rounds.
