Ancalaev wants to fight Pereira at UFC 308 in Abu Dhabi

Former UFC flyweight title challenger Magomed Ankalaev said he expects to fight division champion Alex Pereira at UFC 308 on Oct. 26 in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

"We don't have an exact date yet, the fight is not confirmed. In the near future this issue will be resolved. I don't see another title challenger in this division. If you look at the top 5 fighters, they all have losses in their last fights.

I don't have a problem with my visa to the United States. But I would like the fight to be in Abu Dhabi in two months. If I get a fight there, it will be very good for me in general," MMA Junkie quoted Ankalaev as saying.
