Alex Pereira | Stand And Deliver
Alex Pereira returns to action at UFC 313 looking to rack up another defense of his undisputed light heavyweight title, and he's heading into the bout every bit as humble and grateful as he did when he first set foot in the Octagon.
Pereira arrived on MMA's biggest stage having already conquered the world of kickboxing by capturing world titles in two weight classes with the GLORY promotion. And, after a trio of fights in Brazil for the Jungle Fight promotion, then an eye-catching performance at LFA 95, Pereira joined the UFC. Since then, it's been full throttle for the Brazilian, whose rise to the top of the sport has been meteoric.
