Alex Pereira Octagon Interview | UFC 303 

All bite and a few seconds of bow before walking in. He's gonna be legendary if he keeps this up. That was an insane two final sequences.

2020: Khamzat 🗣 2021: Khamzat 🗣 Pereira 🗿 2022: Khamzat 🗣 Pereira 🗿🏆 2023 Khamzat 🗣 Pereira 🗿🏆🏆 2024 Khamzat:🗣🤧 Pereira: 🗿🏆🏆🏆

Composure 💯

Pereira, after winning the game, John Jones Come to Daddy

And insane fight IQ

Vs champ

And Smith loses to a middle weight on the same night😭 And I bet on Smith😭

@@senthilvelan544 Smith won that fight on paper 🤣🤣🤣🤣

​@@senthilvelan544 wow what were you thinking putting money on Smith? He's way past his prime

Anthony is a bum.

E rodeado de puxa-sacos 🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂😂😂

6’3” 190 lb fighter vs 6’5” 235 lb fighter. Izzy could literally fight at Welterweight and Pereira makes many heavyweights look small

@@TheRealAbraxas😂

Honestly at this point thats insanely impressive.

ZERO DOUBTS

He’s a fckin Elden ring boss at this point 😂

Strickland + Izzy + Jan + Hill + prochazka X2 6 wins over champs

Two belts.

Jon Jones 2011-2013 was crazy too beat Bader, Rua, Evans, Machida, Chael, Rampage, Vitor, Gustafsson

The craziest part is that at 36 years and after all the battles alex is been he is actually past his peak and prime but he is still beating everyone in the ufc and in spectacular fashion.

@@PerceivedREALITY999 , get a life and post this where it actually matters, not here.

@@PrinceVega It matters everywhere.

props to jiri? only a fool (like arman) would turn down a title shot, short notice or not

what funny is that his and joe's where the only great finishes i remember. he pretty much save main card then saved it again ending the decision streak in main card

😂

Underrated comment

says the guy who sits on couch eating chips. Conor fought with injuries against Chad Mendez, Khabib and Dustin. You soy

@@hardy4331 ^

@@programming_and_snacks5192how does it taste?

His ears were bleeding from the inside

he got humiliated, he is upset, lost, confused, depressed. He need to be cut from the sport and be announcer commentator in some Czech sports channel

He'll bounce back. The guy's a warrior.

@@tairunking187are you restarted?

yeah, jiri is a legend. he did everything he could to end the fight differently(changed rythm and had higher defence) but it didnt pay off this time.

Wasn't it mcgregor?

​@@curly50POW"at this point" is another way of saying "in recent years"

@@n.fland.5694 Terrible bait

He is on the verge of becoming a huge ppv star, and if he does get a shot at 3 division champion next that fight will do huge ppv, and if it's against jones it will be the biggest ppv fight of the year, even if conor comes back he won't do does numbers.

@@n.fland.5694 cry more izzylover

@@nikobellic9004 I wouldn't go that crazy. If Conor comes back he'll still outsell simply because of his name.

nah they posting him because they need to promote him dumy

Conor fought Chad with a torn ACL and Khabib with a snapped toe.

@@J1283-s1k If my grandma had wheels she would be a bike

@@bigboss8647 If Conors fan had brains he wouldn't be Conors fan.

@@J1283-s1k yeah and even Alex said that he totally understands why Connor would not want to fight with a broken toe

@@zh3nox you haters follow Connor around online and bring him up more than us fans

Dana’s trying so hard to protect Jones’ legacy. I don’t even think Alex beats Jones but it’s clear what Dana is trying to pull.

@@FentyMixxAbsolutely, it seems like Dana wants Jones to fight Stipe and then Retire. Even Alex would be a tougher fight than Stipe at this point, especially if Jones is unable to take down Alex quickly. Tom Aspinall and Alex Pereira could expose some serious holes on Jon Jones (maybe even KO him), so they want the most low risk and high reward scenarios. Alex could fight Jones after Stipe (especially if Alex beats Magomed), so that’s a possible fight for next year.

@@FentyMixxIdk Jones is 12 days younger than Alex and looks washed when compared. While Alex is still getting better…

Pereira, after winning the game, John Jones Come to Daddy

@@ngonimandizha7738Why would they want to protect him though? Wouldn’t they want a rising star and a potential three divison champ?!

100% agree, his coach didn’t know enough English to correctly get his points across elegantly. He translated English to Portuguese very well and vice versa.

Yah just let this dude translate everytime Alex fights.

Plus he says in same emotion. Amazing guys. Same with the other Portuguese translator. With if them amazing

Olivera's translator ; Fabiano is better

"the GOAT of translation".. pshhh you people... 🙄 The way you use words nowadays, like "legend" is another example, makes it lose their meaning really.

You also notice that😢

He'll be fine. It's the body going through the motions. He'll make a follow up video. He's as resilient as it gets. Very disciplined.

You know what he does after he loses, he basically self tortures himself

Too much expectations can lead disappointment, Alex on the other hand is way more grounded, he acknowledges that anything can happen in a fight and that he might lose. He even considered the possibility of a trilogy happenning.

I hope he's a warrior about it you can be the baddest of them all but someone is so always going to be badder.

jon jones is not a ppv star

No. Jones goes for a boring takedown and the fight would be boring.

Jones stock keeps dropping the longer he waits for aging Stipe. I can’t wait till he retires so Aspinall can become undisputed. I say ALEX vs TOMMY ASPINALL make that happen

​@@jaypatel7426 😂

Jones needs to fight Aspinall. Pereria needs to fight Ankalaev.

Combat sports history GOAT contender ❤

He's definitely one of the GOATs in Martial Arts since he's a double champ in 2 disciplines but He's on his way to becoming UFCs goat if he keeps winning and gets that 265 belt

Already is

Israel relies on US like a beggar. The Palestinians rely on courage like true warriors.

It's not a crime to condemn Israeli war crimes. Condemning Israeli war crimes is not antisemitic

Boa , Alex é um brasileiro humilde e respeitador 👍🇧🇷

Muito respeito por você também meu amigo tcheco! Pode ser fã dele tranquilo porque ele nunca, mas nunca faz trash talk de alguém!

ele é muito humilde, e muito profissional! respeitamos muito o jiri no Brasil. Saudações, amigo tcheco!

Also let's give credit to Joe rogan here for being absolutely brilliant for mentioning the possibility of a historic 3 devisions champions opportunity for Alex if he wants it, and than asking the fans in the arena and waiting for their reactions.......my god it was just perfect. If alex really gets it and it's against Jon jones am predicting it now alex will become the new biggest ufc ppv star and he may surpass conor in that regarde.

​@@nikobellic9004no, no one will be as big of star as conor. he is not the best fighter of mmaz but he had the charisma to pull out fans. saying he will be the star as great as conor is delusional

@@servantofallah9425 they said the same thing about Ali nobody will be bigger until Mike tyson and came and than dela Hoya came and was bigger and than pacquiao came etc. And last time i checked conor actually never surpassed pacquiao or gaywhether as ppv stars so keep that in mind. Stars are getting bigger and bigger over time and it's inevitable somebody will come in the ufc a d will be surprise conor in star power, just like chick liddell was surpassed, and silva and than gsp and tan round rousey and than after that broke lesnar. So far we'll only got fake starts that wanted to be low budget version of conor and it didn't work out for them because they are just copy, but alex is different he is his own person. All the other biggest ppv star in history surpassed each other by being themselves and not being weak copy of each other. And that's why o'malley and topuria will never become next level ppv stars, it lay because average ppv stars at best. If alex pereira fights for the heavyweight title at the end of this year against Jon jones he will break any ppv numbers conor vs Hachiko (or the bellator guy) will do. And if alex (his chances aren't good but not impossible) beats jones he will become the biggest ppv star in the ufc.

@@nikobellic9004😂 He will not be bigger than Conor. Not anyone on the roster today will touch Conor’s numbers.

​@@gopolanglekoto if alex fights for 3 division champion or wins he will absolutely become the biggest star (or at least it's very likely) . The rouda rousey fanboys also cried that conor was never going to surpass her as the biggest ufc ppv star and what happened? he did, every single star in combat sport of the past got eventually surpassed by the next generation. But we will see in the future if I was right or wrong. People are just ignorant and to arrogant to admit the possibility and than are chocked and dumbfounded when it happens. And the one who forsaw the possibility can proudly brag that they saw the possibility.

That's not untrue though

indeed..

Jon is on steroids lol

lol i feel like he has to glaze over JJ or else he would not fight.

@@poatan6304 It is untrue, the P4P list is the current best active fighters, not of all time. It makes sense for Poatan to be above Jones now

Yeah but first Jon Jones need to get out of the way for that to happen

@@IKBENEENPAARD jones has 1 or two fights left max

@@realife1542 last 1 title def on ANK then he can fight JONES hopefully

Hopefully I want to see JJ vs AP

On short notice too

Sure but let's not forget that he hasn't faced a decent wrestler yet in his entire UFC career. Dana keeps feeding him strikers because he knows they'll get decimated and he can keep building up hype for his cash cow. Jiri literally got 2 title shots almost back to back while Ankalaev is still waiting on a much deserved chance at the title. He just keeps getting screwed over because Dana knows he's an actual threat to Alex. The most wrestling Pereira has faced since he joined the UFC came from Adesanya ffs, that says enough. And I say this as a massive Pereira fan, but let's just not be delusional

@@serrobertstrong1377that’s true. But honestly, nobody likes seeing grapplers wrestlers huggers. Everyone wants to see action and striking. Also, Jiri was a rounded fighter not a striker itself. Jan was a wrestler too

​@@serrobertstrong1377 Not when you see the fact Periera did all this in 2 years and Magomeds ONLY win in 2 years is a scrubby Johnny Walker alongside a NC and a draw. Periera would've SHIT on JW. If anything Jiris win over Rakic was better. He really isn't getting screwed out of anything. The only reason this fight even happened was because they needed an exciting replacement for Conor. Magoned isn't on some streak like Belal or Arman.

With what Poatan just did (making light work of these Champions)..... I'll continue to give Credit to Izzy for standing toe to toe with this beast. Alex is really made of stones

Correct 😂

Bro what does izzy have to do with anything?

How the tables have turned lol one day Izzy will say “I beat him one time”

@@itamaojeifo1262correct Izzy is an elite fighter but let’s also put the fact that when Alex fights Izzy he is still drained

I think it's easier to knock out a big, slow guy called Pereira, a heavyweight. John Jones or Aspinall might be easier than I thought

@@li0v2y0u He should avoid Jon until he retires and try to get a title shot then. Jon would take him down with ease along with Aspinall as well, and Blaydes is all over the place with his fighting style every once in a while instead of being wrestling heavy.

@@li0v2y0u In English, what?

Broke his toe and just arranged it like it was nothing after lol

you're only just figuring that out?

@@georgepaul1613right lol

Not only that but Jiri is a legit large light heavyweight. You can tell Alex adjusted to the weight, he looks a little more massive. He is strong in this weight class. It doesn't even look like he throws with full force but he's knocking these dudes out. Dude is a stud and inspiration, very cool guy.

Fought hill with a broken toe & knocks him out, fought jiri & broke his toe on his head

Topurua just started same as o Malley

Why put izzy in there he already is a superstar

*Topuria > whole UFC fighters* P.S. Topuria already is superstar, unlike those listed above, local stars.

​@@Zaiden. They are in UFC for longer than Poatan 😂

@@caiquesilva2752 when I say just started I meant by they just won they title or have like title defence

True! Other than fighting against poatan I will always root for Jiri.

Poatan needs to go up the weight class and face the bigger boys Aspinall Maybe even JJ

What does he have to do with this? Some of you guys are sad. Shame.

🤣

Izzy is a goat of a division. Alex can't claim he's a goat of any division.

​@@spider-man6088Como não venceu todos ex campeões 😅😅

@@spider-man6088 Izzy is not goat lol, defending the title in the most boring fights ever? Losing against Pereira and then Strickland? go to bed

I hate to sound corny but we‘re witnessing greatness LIVE. His run in the ufc will still be talked about in decades

Man total savage to accept fights in shirt notice to defend the belt. Hope the cheap ass dana gives alex his deserved bonus and shit loads of money

Just magic

Best sport. Worst fans.

level kick boxers to enters the ufc, they spectacular and are active as hell because it's normal to fight a lot in kickboxing and muay Thai.

Naw son pride slaughters ufc

Still more likeable than racist boxing fans. ​@Micisme86

​@@serpentinefire921fr

I'd say thanks to Izzy for making Pereira much more stronger ever since that loss

hope this time izzy go on LH so he can prove that he can beat alex on his habitat

@@IoriMaedo That could happen in the future. I'm certain, it can't be any time soon

but since he got dogwalked by stickland i think its hard for him to get a rematch since alex is 36 now all i can see is a 1 last title defence on ANK then he move up on HV and thats it he could retire without any brain damage and get fat bank account

@@winningsm_iie2447Izzy beat him with a lucky shot

Joe is a kickboxer also, I think.

@@ricardo.nobrega I think he did taekwondo in the beginning and then went to kickboxing gym

Chill

Nah he only fought strikers give him Ankalaev then we'll see

he's good but ur glazing too hard

Delusional

Fought better and younger competitors than Jones too. He would murder him at HW.

glad they let it go so people dont scream early stoppage LOL

@@matthewa7503I was thinking the same thing lmao. Jiri could barely stand.

herb running in circles seeing diff angles making sure he wont get threats and bash

Yes and Alex felt bad too and tried to help him get up....Alex is just a humble person, he didn't event celebrate and just walk off like it's nothing...

He looked crushed during their final handshake, hope he manages to rebound

Your thanks to Konner made my night! Thank you for the best comment.

Alex is just cleaning a bum ass light heavyweight division 😂

This what jiri needs... Instead of bushido

Has to be tiring hating on izzy so much lol

Ok now y'all going insane

Meatriding at its finest.

@@RealMrSmilena bro not even jones dominated like this and then we’re old champs like shogun his only great fight was with Alex when he fought young lions he got slower, Alex is 37 koing champs in their prime 😅

I’d consider Alex to be a bit ahead of Izzy in terms of MMA greatness, but he’s not quite at Jon Jones level yet

His nickname is 'Hand of Stone' for a reason

What about izzy

​@@gojosensei6501Thanks Izzy you made Pereira stronger then ever

Yan is really the goat for fighting someone so much heavier than him! 🐐

@@PaulBadman981 yan? Or jan?

Yep

well ya izzy was champion for a long time obviously hes an all time great fighter but getting bullied by strickland was a bad look lol

Weight cut

It was early on in his career and he was still learning how to strike in mma, so it's hard to say- Izzy wanted that fight because he knew Alex was still getting used to the octagon- I don't believe he ever wins another bout against Alex at MW of LHW and I don't believe he ever gives Alex another chance to fight him. He will ride that victory for as long as he could. Ironically.

They are 1-1 in MMA dude what

@goead dude MMA or your back garden Alex beat him 3 times and if they fight again Alex will send him to the coffin 😎

@@goead yeah sucks that Izzy fumbled the Strickland fight, could've had the chance at double champ again

@@Eno-nr8rpit doesn’t matter this is the ufc

@@goead 3 - 1 you blind

Chill

Jon Jones on the juice tho

HAHHHA

If he bulked up a bit, maybe

@@tylerdewey915 give him time to heal, bulk up, and work on scrambling/takedown defense non stop. He beats Jones and becomes 3 division champ!

You're confused. Jon is the one holding everything up. Stipe has been ready to go for months, and Jones is supposedly injured. He should just be stripped, and let everyone else fight.

@@Danielson1818 on that note, somehow I agree.

Juri's career is over he was humiliated

​@@tairunking187who tf are you? Was Alex career over when izzy put a blanket on him? Foh

@@ripbozo706 different story LH is alex and jiri natural habitat , on that fight in middleweight alex looks exhausted it is what it is 1-1 now its izzy time to move to HW and prove himself is it not enough strickland dogwalked izzy

@@ripbozo706 Alex cut too much weight for 185 he got KOed bad by not even a hard punch this is why he moved up. I'm a fan who want Juri to keep his health cant be healthy while that reckless. Was champ had honor and integrity now it is time to move on

@@tairunking187fans like you are what’s wrong with this sport. Man gets knocked out once or twice in the ufc and suddenly you think he’s washed

DC: stop the fight stop the fight HHAHAHAHA

connor and alex is both superstars with different approach and both sucessful but lets be honest too many ccan copy conor style and no one can do it on alex

@@IoriMaedo we're seeing Ian McGregor Garry prove the true fans hate the gimmick shit
