Alex Pereira’s Rescue of Glover Teixeira from Wife’s Fury Sends Jon Jones, Mike Perry, and Others into a Frenzy

Alex Pereira is a true friend to Glover Teixeira. The UFC Light-Heavyweight Champion helped Teixeira get out of a spot of trouble in a recent video posted on his Instagram page.

Alex Pereira reveals his plans for the UFC to Adin Ross

Alex Pereira and Adin Ross were a link-up that fans did not see coming. ‘Poatan’ was in Miami recently for the UFC 299 event and before the event, he met Ross at his residence.

The live streamer then asked the UFC Light Heavyweight Champion whether he plans to move up in weight in the future in a Kick Stream. Here’s what he had to say to him:

“(Translated by his coach) His focus right now is on this weight class”

Take a look at the video:

Pereira is set to defend his title at UFC 300 against Jamal Hill next. But, he has not ruled out going up in weight. The champion will currently look to clear all the contenders from the light heavyweight division before he can even think of going to the heavyweight division.
