Judging by the photo posted by the Brazilian on social networks, he is not interested in opponents who are not in the top three of this weight category.
“Who?” the Brazilian wrote, posting a photo of reigning UFC light heavyweight champion Jamal Hill, as well as Magomed Ankalaev and Jan Blachowicz, who occupy the second and third positions in the division rankings, respectively.
Earlier, UFC President Dana White announced that Alex Pereira would not get an immediate title shot in the new weight class, but would face one of the division’s top fighters.
Recall that on April 8, the Brazilian fighter lost the UFC middleweight championship belt, losing in an immediate rematch by knockout in the second round to Israel Adesanya, after which he announced a change in weight category.
