Alex Pereira seems ready for the weekend ahead of the UFC 300. He is hands down the heavy favorite going into his first title defense of the Light heavyweight division. This will be his very title defense if he is, in fact, successful in his objective. We have heard a lot about Pereira’s knockout power, given that he has a habit of knocking his opponents out in the initial few rounds. As it turns out, all the rumors about his godly power must be accurate, as he made history recently.
Alex Pereira became a two-division champion in less than ten fights in the company. His upcoming bout against Jamahal Hill may be the most brutal bout of his career.
Alex Pereira creates history ahead of UFC 300
Alex Pereira is one of the few martial artists who has won kickboxing and mixed martial arts titles at multiple weight divisions. Due to his kickboxing credentials, Pereira carries an immense knockout pedigree. There was much debate about his left hook being the most vicious weapon in the UFC, and it turns out that that just might be true.
Alex Pereira reportedly broke the UFC’s punching record when he decided to test out his power from the right onto a punching machine. Pereira reportedly has a punching power of 191,796 units, much more than the previous record set by former Heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou. Alex Pereira proved that all the rumors about him having some serious power are true.
It’ll be interesting to see how his opponent, Jamahal Hill, responds to the news. Hill has claimed time and again that he is going to knock Alex out on the feet. Many will agree that this might not be an ideal game plan to execute in an Alex Pereira fight, given that the former kickboxer is known to put away his opponents in spectacular fashion.
It’ll be interesting to see what happens in the future in the UFC octagon later this weekend at the UFC 300.
