UFC Middleweight Champion Alex Pereira told when and against whom he wanted to hold the first defense of the belt.
“I want to come back in April or May. I will be ready for these dates. Right now there are no options. But I know it will probably be a rematch with Israel Adesanya. But it could also be a fight with Robert Whittaker, ”ESPN quotes Pereira.
Recall that Pereira won the title in November last year, knocking out Israel Adesanya in the fifth round.
