UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira of Brazil backed compatriot Charles Oliveira, who lost a split decision to Arman Tsarukyan on April 13 at UFC 300 and forfeited his chance to get a rematch with current lightweight division leader Islam Makhachev.
"I went through something similar. Now he has to see what mistakes were made. Sometimes we don't lose because we made mistakes during the fight. Charles needs to see what he has to change.
No one knows what he's been through outside of the fighting world. It's important that he realizes what needs to be fixed and tries to do it," Pereira told Laerte Viana.
