Ankalaev called Pereira's words nonsense

UFC welterweight Magomed Ankalaev responded to the words of the promotion's featherweight champion Alex Pereira, who earlier said he was the one who asked the promotion's management to bring them together in the octagon.

"That's utter nonsense. He wanted to fight someone else. The UFC said he's fighting me now. He wants to make it look like his wish," Ancalaev wrote on social media.
