The UFC middleweight champion looks like he might be playing a few mind games ahead of his first title defense. While preparing for his rematch against long time rival Israel Adesanya, Alex Pereira posted a sparring video on Instagram to show how his camp has been coming along so far.
Though the footage itself presents nothing out of the ordinary (beyond that poor man getting ripped up with body shots), the caption ‘Poatan’ wrote tells a different tale. In it, the Brazilian wrote Adesanya’s date of birth next to a star emoji and then followed it up with the date of their rematch, next to a coffin emoji.
