The Pole is expected to return to the octagon in March with a fight against Carlos Uhlberg.
"If Pereira beats Ancalaev - it's better for me, I deserve a rematch with Alex. If Ancalaev wins - he and I broke a draw, so there's unfinished business. If I defeat Ulberg, I will push for a rematch with Pereira. I'm ready to regain the championship belt," MMA Fighting quotes the Pole as saying.
