UFC featherweight champion Alex Pereira said it's highly likely that former belt holder Jiri Prochazka will be his next opponent.

"We've more or less talked things over with the promotion and Ancalaev is kind of excluded from the discussion, so his offer to fight in Abu Dhabi doesn't make sense.

He's had two bad fights that were very boring to watch, so I don't think there's any point in talking about him now. About the rematch with Prochazka - everything is half discussed, but I'm not 100% sure that the next challenger will be him," - quotes Pereira Bloody Elbow.

Recall that Pereira and Prochazka have already met in the octagon. Last November, the Brazilian beat the Czech by knockout, taking the vacant belt.
