Fans are already buzzing with excitement for the UFC’s 2025 pay-per-view events. Big names like Islam Makhachev and Merab Dvalishvili are set to return to action. However, Alex Pereira, who received immense love from fans in 2024, is expected to gain even more admiration in 2025. UFC matchmakers will likely pair Pereira with Magomed Ankalaev in a light heavyweight title fight, a matchup fueled by the rivalry between the two fighters that fans thoroughly enjoy.
Ankalaev, the top-ranked light heavyweight and number-one title contender, has dominated his last two fights and is eagerly awaiting his title shot. The 32-year-old Russian fighter issued a warning to the current light heavyweight champion, Pereira, with a bold message:
“Enjoy life while you can. You have been a great champion, but your time is up. See you soon.”
The Brazilian fighter, who competed three times this year and is now on a break after securing back-to-back wins, is currently enjoying his vacation in Korea. Fans can anticipate Pereira’s return around mid-2025.
