“Pereira has a zero fight – I know that I will roll him out in the first round,” Borz said in an interview with UFC Russia. “He knows this, so he avoids me, he says that I didn’t fight somewhere, but I myself only made three fights in this weight. Let’s see what will come of it”
“I wanted to win the belt last year, but it didn’t work out. I hope to become a champion this year. I have won all my fights, never lost, and I am ready to win the title, but I think that I will fight Whittaker first.
“I would like to fight every two months, five times a year, but at this level they don’t give so many fights. When they pay a lot of money, they want to give only good rivals – I understand all this, so I’m waiting”
Israel Adesanya’s next middleweight title fight to take on Alex Pereira will headline UFC 287 in Miami on April 8.
