Alexandr Ormanji Nov. 11, 2023, 11:51 a.m.

Alex Pereira, the former UFC middleweight champion, said he will not return to the division.

“Return to middleweight? I don’t think this will happen. I had plans for middleweight, I talked about it. But I feel great in light heavyweights. I competed as a middleweight for a long time, and it seriously affected my health. So for me it will be better to stay at light heavyweight.”

Let us remind you that tonight Pereira will fight with Jiri Prochazka for the vacant UFC light heavyweight title.
