WATCH: Michel Pereira Has an Interesting Project to Share With the Fans

Michel Pereira is one of the most entertaining fighters in the UFC. He never shies away from showing his athleticism and fans love to watch him fight. From backflips to off the cage superman punches, he does it all.

‘Demolidor’ competes in the welterweight division of the UFC. He started his MMA journey in 2011 and, after going 22-9-2, signed with the UFC. He started his UFC career impressively. The Brazilian put on a show against Danny Roberts and did all his tricks before landing a brutal flying knee. He followed that up with a strong straight right that sent his opponent crashing to the floor.

He lost his next two fights and looked to be in a tough spot, but has bounced back since then. Pereira is currently on a three-fight win streak and is coming off a win against one of the toughest competitors in the UFC in Niko Price. Both men met at UFC 264, and ‘The Hybrid’ lost the fight via a unanimous decision.

Before his fight against Price, Pereira was working on a project, showing his daily life in Las Vegas. In a recent tweet, he posted the third video of the project. He wrote, “Hey guys, this is the third video of the project we put together to show my daily life here in Las Vegas before UFC 264! Hope you like it.”

The Brazilian was preparing to enter the octagon on January 15, however, his opponent pulled out.
