Magomed Ankalaev, a top fighter in the UFC's bantamweight division, has approached current featherweight champion Alex Pereira. Ankalaev offered the Brazilian a bet: the first 15 minutes of their fight would be spent without any wrestling.
"Alex, let's make a deal. The first 15 minutes without teikdowns," - wrote Ankalaev in social networks.
Recall, June 29, Pereira successfully held another defense of his championship belt, knocking out Jiri Prohazka.
