UFC bantamweight champion Alex Pereira has confirmed that he wants to try his hand at a boxing match one day.
"Absolutely, I have a desire to compete under boxing rules one day. I think the UFC's partnership with boxing is very good news for the sport. Many boxers say that MMA fighters can't compete with boxers on an equal footing. However, in my opinion, not only me, but many other fighters could do it," - quotes the Brazilian The Sports Rush.
Recall that on October 5 in the main event of UFC 307 in Salt Lake City, USA, Pereira will defend his title against the encroachments of Khalil Rountree.
