Alex Pereira’s possible return after UFC 300

UFC light heavyweight champ, Alex Pereira KO’d former UFC light heavyweight champ, Jamahal Hill at the historic UFC 300. Pereira showed interest in fighting at the UFC 301 event. Tom Aspinall posted a cryptic image of him looking ominously at the UFC light heavyweight champ, which led many to believe that the fight between Aspinall and Pereira would be made at UFC 301. However, Pereira’s manager would soil any expectations for the fight in the next event.

During the MMA Fighting’s Trocação Franca podcast, when asked about a quick turnaround, Pereira’s manager stated, “That won’t happen, no way, especially now that he has another broken toe. He has to go to the shipyard and let the dust settle and celebrate the victory. Maybe to watch the event, but no fights for him.”
