UFC featherweight champion Alex Pereira said he would one day like to share the octagon with former title challenger Magomed Ankalaev.

"I would like to test myself against Magomed Ankalaev. Many people are talking about this fight. They claim that he will easily and quickly defeat me with a painful or choking hold. But I want to shut those critics up and show that I can do something in ground fighting too. This fight will not be easy, but it will definitely be very interesting," - quotes Pereira BJ Penn.

Pereira will rematch Jiri Prohazka on June 29 in the main event of UFC 303 in Las Vegas, USA.
