Hi, I am Kanishk and I am a UFC Writer at EssentiallySports. I love telling the stories of these magnificent fighters and this wildly unpredictable sport that is so frustrating and yet so joyous at the same time. I never really used to watch MMA, thinking it too crude or brutal a sport to deserve respect. But, spurred by Joe Rogan, I started my journey to becoming an MMA fan. And once I started watching, I was hooked. The drama- better than most movies, the storylines- more gripping than the WWE, and the results- even more shocking. And pretty soon, I found myself arguing with strangers on the internet over whether Demetrious Johnson would beat Jon Jones if they were the same size, or if UFC 1 was actually fixed. I have taken that same passion and love for the sport to ES and hope to share it with the readers. And the best part is that it's my job to watch UFC events with fellow enthusiasts and write about it.

Khamzat Chimaev Calls Out Alex Pereira in a Special Request To UFC CEO Dana White - EssentiallySports

<h3 style="text-align: center">Alex Pereira: Net Worth 2023, Record, Salary, and Endorsements</h3>
<h2 class="jsx-a028b1a3d5e577bf" style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira: Net Worth 2023</b></h2>
Alex Pereira made his way into the UFC in the year 2021, after reaching exceptional heights of success in kickboxing. His rivalry with <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/israel-adesanya/">Israel Adesanya</a> is one of the most famous storylines in UFC history. 'Poatan' maintained his reputation even after his UFC entry as he gained another point in their rivalry by defeating 'Izzy' at UFC 281. The win earned him the UFC Middleweight Championship and also a massive stature among the UFC audience. The Brazilian reportedly boasts a current net worth of a whopping $2M.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1266165" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/alex-pereira.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" />

Alike other UFC fighters, Pereira also receives his salary per fight. 'Poatan' earned the highest salary of his UFC career from his Middleweight championship bout at UFC 281 which stood at $500k. This bout against his archrival, Adesanya earned him the biggest sum from a single fight. His entire fight purse from his UFC 281 bout stood at an insane $932k.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira's Early Life and Family</b></h2>
Not much information about Pereira's parents or their background is available in the public domain. However, there are also a few known facts about Pereira's early life. 'Poatan' belonged to the indigenous Brazilian tribe named 'Patax?'. He was born on 7 July 1987 in S?o Bernardo do Campo of Sao Paulo, Brazil. Little Pereira didn't find his study books interesting at all as he dropped out of middle school.

Pereira started working at a tire shop and got influenced by his co-workers, which propelled him towards alcoholism. 'Poatan' started kickboxing from the year 2009 primarily to overcome his addiction to alcohol.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira: Kickboxing Career</b></h2>
'Poatan' started off his amateur kickboxing career in the year 2009 and ramped up a 25-3 record. Once, he had gone on record to state that all his losses had come against the same person. Pereira also turned a professional in the year 2012 and made his debut under the Brazilian kickboxing and MMA promotion named 'Jungle Fight'.

Following that, he joined the WGP Kickboxing and also claimed the Middleweight Title of the promotion. Further, he also had a title defense as he finished off Maycon Silva in the second round of his WGP KB 40 bout.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-756641" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/alex-pereira.jpeg" alt="" width="1920" height="1280" />

At the same time, Pereira was also fighting for the noted, 'Glory Kickboxing' promotion as well. In 2017, Pereira claimed the promotion's Middleweight Championship. He further had four title defenses to his name after claiming the Middleweight championship. Glory Kickboxing is also the platform that witnessed the beginning of the coveted rivalry between Pereira and the former UFC champion, Israel Adesanya.

In 2021, he also became the first-ever 'Glory' fighter to boast championships in two divisions (Middleweight and Light Heavyweight). Pereira's 'Glory Kickboxing' record of 12-4 also contains two wins over the former UFC Middleweight king, Adesanya.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira: MMA Career</b></h2>
Pereira made his professional MMA debut under the 'Jungle Fight'only since the promotion hosted events for both kickboxing and MMA. But, post his debut in 2015, 'Poatan' only fought two more fights in 'Jungle Fight'. However, after a decorated kickboxing career, Pereira decided to move on to MMA full-time and had his first fight for 'Legacy Fighting Alliance' on 20 November 2020. He also picked up a convincing victory over his opponent, Thomas Powell, with a first-round TKO.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1651890" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Untitled-design-2023-04-05T001816.083.png" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />

On September 3, 2021, it was announced that 'Poatan' had signed into the UFC. The Brazilian was put to work against Andreas Michailidis in his first UFC encounter and passed the test with flying colors as he got a knockout win in the second round, courtesy of a vicious knee.

The promotion scheduled him against another exciting middleweight Bruno Silva in his second fight which remains his toughest UFC test. Pereira got a decision win against Silva and looked impressive.

Pereira fought the noted Middleweight <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sean-strickland/">Sean Strickland</a> in his next bout. It was the moment when Pereira stood out and made his claim for the middleweight championship held by Israel Adesanya. His superb streak in the UFC and the bitter rivalry between him and the then UFC Middleweight kingpin guaranteed that 'Poatan's' wish was materialized.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1600649" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago1019157955h-1.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1280" />

The Brazilian took on his archrival Israel Adesanya inside the UFC octagon as well. However, the results didn't showcase much difference. 'Poatan' finished off Adesanya in the final round of the bout with a standing TKO. His third victory over 'Izzy' gained him the UFC Middleweight Championship as well. However, he lost a rematch with Adesanya at UFC 287. Next, he moved to the light heavyweight division where he defeated Jan Blachowicz at UFC 291. Now, he faces Jiri Prochazka for the vacant UFC light heavyweight title. Alex Pereira currently holds a professional MMA record of 8-2-0 in his MMA career.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira: UFC Record</b></h2>
A lot of UFC fans would agree that 'Poatan' is one of the most dominating fighters on the current UFC roster. The 'Sao Paulo native' currently boasts an unblemished 5-1 record in the UFC.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira: Fighting Style</b></h2>
Pereira's style is well known. The former dual champion in Glory kickboxing likes to keep the fight standing. Poatan does not rush his attacks and sets up his attack with constant forward pressure. His countering ability is second to none. The Brazilian has lethal power in both of his hands and legs. Every limb of the kickboxer is designed to hit and hit hard.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1334861" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Alex-Pereira-1.jpeg" alt="" width="1260" height="1260" />

Apart from his striking prowess, the kickboxer-turned-MMA fighter has great takedown defense. As his first career loss in MMA came by submission, he has shown immense improvement on the mat as well.

Poatan trains with one of the best grapplers in the UFC - Glover Teixeira, thus the improvements in his game are exceptional.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira's Awards and Achievements</b></h2>
Understandably, Pereira's decorated combat sports career has earned him a lot of awards to date. Here are some of the notable accolades that the 'Patax? tribe native currently boasts:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Won UFC Middleweight Championship in November 2022</span></li>

</ul>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira's Wife</b></h2>
Despite being a person who prefers keeping his personal life private, a few Instagram posts from Pereira displayed a rather unseen side of his life. Earlier, this year, Pereira posted a video on his Instagram showcasing his trip with a lady whom he labeled as <em>"a special person".</em>

</div></blockquote>
Even though Pereira didn't mention anything about the lady, fans found out that her name was 'Merle'. Also, Pereira mentioning her as <em>"a special person", </em>left no doubts that she definitely was the girlfriend of 'Poatan'. 'Merle' was reported to be a TV presenter and a kickboxing interviewer. 'Poatan' also uploaded a few other Instagram videos where she could be spotted with him.

In the comments section of the above Instagram post, Pereira himself clarified the questions of a lot of his fans, who asked why Pereira was with another lady when he was still married.

His <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-i-am-divorced-1-year-ago-father-of-two-alex-pereira-clarifies-relationship-with-special-person-after-snap-goes-viral/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">comment on the post read</a>, "<em>Just to let the fans know I am divorced 1 year ago and live with my two children. And laughing for nothing". </em>It was clear from 'Poatan's' comment that he was married no more. But, he has also refrained from mentioning the name of his ex-wife in public, which leaves his fans in darkness regarding this area of his life.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira's Sister</b></h2>
Aline Pereira traced the steps of her elder brother, Alex, and started off training in combat sports. She also turned a professional on 22 July 2017, debuting for the 'WGP Kickboxing' promotion. After finding good success in it, she transitioned to 'Glory Kickboxing' just like her brother.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1651904" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Untitled-design-2023-04-05T002727.567.png" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />

She fought 3 bouts under Glory and transitioned to MMA, joining the 'LFA' like her brother.?However, she too began her MMA career with a defeat and currently boasts a 0-1 record in MMA. Reportedly, Alex and Aline share a loving and strong brother-sister relationship between them.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Alex Pereira: Endorsements</b></h2>
Apart from the fight purse in UFC, Pereira has a few sponsors. Pereira had an NFT partnership with?<a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/ChXeMZhMfzQ/">OWNIC</a>. He also endorses the brand AthletiCBD. The Brazilian, like any other fighter in the UFC, gets promotional benefits from UFC fight gear as well.

<h2>Dricus du Plessis: Net Worth 2023, Record, Girlfriend, and More</h2>
<strong>Dricus du Plessis</strong> is a surging contender who is rising in ranks since making his promotional debut against <strong>Markus Perez</strong> in 2020. The UFC star has put the middleweight division on alert with his knack for finishes and his well-rounded combat skills. His lethal punches and sudden ascendance even caught the attention of the current champion, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/israel-adesanya/"><strong>Israel Adesanya</strong></a>. 'Stillknocks' is away from the much-coveted title shot by one fight as <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-robert-whittaker-revealed-his-nonchalant-desire-for-a-dog-fight-against-dricus-du-plessis-despite-israel-adesanyas-unruly-prediction-i-want-to-put-him-away/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he takes on former UFC champion</a> <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/robert-whittaker/"><strong>Robert Whittaker</strong></a> at UFC 290.
<h2>Dricus du Plessis: Net Worth 2023</h2>
As of 2023, the 29-year-old's net worth is reported to be between $1 million-$5 million, according to multiple sources. People Ai listed his net worth as $2.25 million. The MMA fighter, who prefers to keep his personal details concealed, hasn't revealed his exact estimates to the public.

<h2>Dricus du Plessis: UFC Record</h2>
The Hatfield native holds an impressive record of 5-0 in the UFC, and four victories came via stoppage. He has eased past the likes of <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/darren-till/"><strong>Darren Till</strong></a> at UFC 282 and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/derek-brunson/"><strong>Derek Brunson</strong></a> at UFC 285. He dominated the fight against <strong>Brad Tavares</strong>, his only fight that went the distance.

On the heels of those spectacular wins, the 19-2 record holder has forced himself into the title discussions. Notably, his last defeat dates back to 2018, when he dropped the fight against <strong>Roberto Soldic</strong> and, as a result, also lost his KSW welterweight title. But he never let this defeat trouble him, and he then inculcated the lessons in his game. His 7-fight win streak bears testament to his caliber as a fighter and a quick learner.
<h2>The Early life of Dricus</h2>
The Team CIT MMA gym representative got involved with combat sports at the age of 5 when he picked up judo and then wrestling. He eventually shifted to kickboxing at 14 and then became a WAKO World Champion in K-1.

'Stillknocks' has mentioned in the past that his aim had always been to perfect the combination of stand-up and ground game. He wants to dominate these styles individually. He always had the dream of becoming a professional MMA fighter. Besides, the scarce earning opportunities in kickboxing also pushed him to switch to MMA.

<h2 class="jsx-3677412058" style="text-align: center">Khamzat Chimaev 2023: Record, Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
Khamzat Chimaev is a rising UFC star. 'Borz' made his presence felt in the UFC's welterweight and middleweight division ever since his UFC debut in July 2020 at Fight Island. The Russian-born 29-year-old fighter currently finds himself at #4 in the UFC's welterweight rankings.
<h2 class="jsx-3677412058" style="text-align: center"><span data-sheets-value="{" data-sheets-userformat="{">Khamzat Chimaev Career Highlights</span></h2>
'<a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/khamzat-chimaev/">Borz</a>' made his smacking Octagon debut against John Phillips at UFC Fight Island 1. Khamzat Chimaev's UFC career started with a second-round win that saw him grab the Performance of the Night bonus.

Afterward, he took a fight on short notice and became a viral sensation and one of the best talents to come out from the initial Fight Island cards. Khamzat Chimaev's weight <a href="https://www.dazn.com/en-IN/news/mma/ufc-fight-night-khamzat-chimaev-wins-two-fights-in-ten-days-in-different-weight-classes/1i1dmavd1f9fl16u2yj8aq1odd" target="_blank" rel="noopener">class</a> was the talk of the town during his Fight Island stint.

Subsequently, the Russian-born MMA star set a record for one of the fastest <a href="https://www.ufc.com/news/fastest-turnarounds-ufc-history-godinez-chimaev-figueiredo-strickland-holland" target="_blank" rel="noopener">turnarounds</a> and fought three times in a span of fewer than 70 days. He defeated Rhys McKee and Gerald Meerschaert in his next two Octagon appearances.

The viral sensation became a threat in both the welterweight and middleweight divisions after his spectacular performances. The UFC and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/dana-white/">Dana White</a> were so high about him that they booked him against welterweight contender <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/leon-edwards/">Leon Edwards</a>. However, as Chimaev faced some medical <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-khamzat-chimaev-reveals-he-had-surgery-to-combat-covid-19-symptoms/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">issues</a>, he did not compete for around a year.

After a long layoff, Chimaev returned to the octagon against the #11 <a href="https://www.ufc.com/rankings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ranked</a> UFC welterweight contender Li Jingliang. K<span data-sheets-value="{" data-sheets-userformat="{">hamzat Chimaev vs Li Jingliang</span> took place on October 30, 2021, at UFC 267. 'Borz' put on a definitive performance and stamped his return with yet another first-round finish.

Khamzat Chimaev's next fight was against Gilbert Burns. Chimaev secured a decision victory to establish his dominance against an elite opponent. Next, he was going to face <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/nate-diaz/"><strong>Nate Diaz</strong> </a>at UFC 279. However, due to a controversial weight miss, Chimaev ended up facing <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/kevin-holland/"><strong>Kevin Holland</strong></a>. The undefeated fighter defeated Holland via a first round submission. Later, 'Borz' move to the middleweight division was announced.
<h2 class="jsx-3677412058" style="text-align: center"><span data-sheets-value="{" data-sheets-userformat="{">What are Khamzat Chimaev's history and background?</span></h2>
The young, vibrant fighter with his wrestling roots uses a grappling-heavy game plan. His double legs have been a treat for the wrestling observers. In addition, the evolved handcuff grips, smooth back takes and heavy pressure from the top make the fighter a relentless force in the UFC.

Furthermore, 'Borz', who trains with a phenomenal striker in UFC light heavyweight Alexander Gustafsson, has fast hands and devastating power.

To go with his sound grappling technique and decent hands, he uses forward pressure and ground and pound to take out his opponents. Though 'Borz' has never gone to the judges' scorecard, his training regime has become a legendary <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLsSr569coQ&amp;ab_channel=ChaelSonnen" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tale</a>.

From displaying grappling clinics to securing one-punch KO (K<span data-sheets-value="{" data-sheets-userformat="{">hamzat Chimaev vs Gerald Meerschaert)</span>, that too in two weight divisions that are 15 lbs apart from each other, 'Borz' is on his way to becoming the next big thing in the UFC.
