Pereira reveals why he shaves his head before fights

Dmitriy Kel | Published June 28, 2024, 4:28 a.m.

UFC bantamweight champion Alex Pereira said he shaves his head bald before fights to have a more intimidating appearance.

"With long hair, I look like a nice guy. It doesn't work that way. I need to be ready for war," Pereira said on another episode of UFC 303: Embedded.

As a reminder, Pereira will defend his belt against the encroachment of Jiri Prochazka in the main event of UFC 303 on the night of June 30 in Las Vegas, USA.
