Pereira eyes unique triple crown

HEAVY HITTER

NO one has achieved as much as quickly as Alex Pereira inside the octagon. Now the Brazilian wants to take on an even bigger challenge.

Just eight fights into his UFC career, Pereira has already ruled the middleweight division and made the first defence of his light heavyweight crown at UFC 300, making quick work of Jamahal Hill in Las Vegas.

Having made a seamless transition from kickboxing, ‘Poatan’ has used his ‘Stone Hands’ to great effect in less than three years with the company.

However, the 36-year-old is now looking to make more history and potentially become the first fighter to hold world titles in three divisions.
