Nowadays, top-tier stars with a strong fan base can explore various avenues to earn money, including advertisements, and businesses. Notably, selling exclusive merchandise has become a significant source of income for many A-listers, as WWE stars to YouTubers are making solid profits from it. Recently, Alex Pereira, ahead of his UFC 300 fight against Jamahal Hill, launched a new set of merchandise for his fans in collaboration with Full Violence.
This is not the first time that the Brazilian fighter has launched exclusive merch. Earlier, after his win against Jiri Prochazka, he launched his ‘Come to Daddy‘ merchandise, popularizing the phrase he used to challenge Israel Adesanya. This time, Pereira dropped several T-shirts and hoodies, ahead of the historic event where he is headlining against the former LHW Champ. The designs include “Chama,” “Lights Out,” “Stone Face,” “Team Pereira,” and the fighter’s iconic hunting pose.

The prices of the clothes start from 2800 INR to 5500 INR. Indeed, the more designs and higher the demand, the higher the price of the clothes. Moreover, from UFC reporter Nina Marie Daniel to numerous fans, many have expressed how impressed they are with this merch and most cannot wait to get their hands on it.
Just like Charles Oliveira and others, the merchandise drop, right before UFC 300, serves as Pereira’s method to promote the event and generate excitement about the upcoming match. Fans who are supporting Pereira can wear these T-shirts to show their support. Meanwhile, reports have mentioned that the referee for their matchup has been officially confirmed.
