UFC 295 is approaching in leaps and bounds and with it the title fight of Jiri Prochazka vs Alex Pereira, who will battle for the welterweight championship belt. This is one of the most anticipated duels of the year.
The careers of both fighters in the UFC are not very long, but that makes it all the more impressive. Pereira can win his second title, having already held the welterweight belt. Walk for a change will be fighting to return to the throne of the welterweight division.
It’s definitely worth not blinking at the fight, as one punch could spell the end. Both fighters are finishing their opponents practically on the spot and few expect their mutual duel to end on points.
In addition, Pereira has been given an interesting boost. For he has received a great award that will certainly not be lost on his resume, quite the opposite.
Alex Pereira inducted into the Hall of Fame
Before the duel with Jiri Procházka, Alex Pereira reached an unexpected milestone. Namely, the UFC star switched to MMA after a successful career in kickboxing, which he retired from in 2021.
The most prestigious brand in the world of kickboxing is the Glory organization, and in that organization the Brazilian was a two-time champion, having dominated the middleweight and welterweight divisions, defeating, among others, Israel Adesanya, with whom he also had two duels in the UFC, winning one and losing the other.
It is worth noting that he is only the third man to receive this honor. Joe Valtellini and former UFC fighter Semmy Schilt did it before him.
