The Scariest Knockout Machine is Smoking UFC - Alex Pereira

Спорт

Alex Pereira dominated kickboxing, starched Adesanya, conquered two divisions in Glory and became the promotion’s pound-for-pound king. Recently he has burst onto the UFC scene and made it all the way to a title shot in a blink of an eye. Today we recall Pereira's career in a striking world, as the Brazilian prepares for a crack at the premiere championship belt in MMA.

    His ability to take a loss and bounce back is just impressive to me. Edit; a little over a year later now and he is my favorite fighter in the UFC, a very active fighter, shows dedication and constantly improves specially the wrestling from Michailidis to now he has really improved his ground game. Learned about his connection with the indigenous tribe, The Pataxo tribe and it is so wholesome to see him being proud of who he is. He was still an alcoholic until that Izzy fight which forced him to quit and actually better himself for his career and his family. He is very close to Glover Texeira with whom he has a very special bond something that Alex hasn't gotten the chance to since his brother died years ago I believe caused by gang violence in the favelas which is another factor as to why he joined combat sports to stay away from that life. The guy's life is a movie and is now two divisional champion in the UFC and Glory. God bless him ❤.

    Pereira would probably be a very good craftsman who has an extremely good sense of proportion. He can assess where the opponent is moving and strike there. Many fighter make the mistake of aiming where the opponent is when they throw the punch. Until the hand or foot is there, the opponent has moved and you dont hit properly. Pereira is like a laser.

    23:15 he throws that left almost as if its going to be a weak throw away punch, the kind fighters throw just to keep their opponent busy as they reposition. But in Pereira's case, its an absolute killer of a left. The danger being that there is no crazy windup, no need to have feet firmly planted on the ground, he throws it while advancing, he throws it while backing up, regardless of position or stance, its a fight ending punch. Crazy fighter.

Even the kick before it - let that go like a cannon with KO intent. KILLERRRR

    I'm brazilian and a jiu jitsu brown belt and have been for 9 years. There's no rush here to change belts, you don't ask. The belt calls out to you. So when you come across a BJJ black belt, the number of dojo hours is immense. This extends to other martial arts here in Brazil. We have respect for our opponents and are in no rush to sport a black belt. I believe that our fighting culture creates more "thick-skinned" fighters.

Por isso um lutador de jiujitsu (via de regra) denota ser mais casca grossa na aparencia do seu corpo que um Carateca, por exemplo. Encontramos o mesmo no sambo e wrestling. @@ninja11zoo

    Congratulations on the video. It was great to present the story of the fighter since he started in the martial arts until his last fight in the UFC. It was interesting to see the development of Alex Pereira, who started kickboxing at the age of 21 and in a short time became Glória's two-time champion. All final twists Poatan won against the fighters who had beaten him. I come to the conclusion that his fighting IQ is high because he learns so fast.
