Alex is a real humble guy, look at how he doesn't edit the footage to make him look super good against the guy, he even slow motioned the guy dodging his punches, making this look quite decent on both ends. Very nice.

seems like the boxer was instructed to be defensive for Alex's sparring, that's why. He's also way smaller and doesn't want to get cut probably

[@thomasbrobozki7156]

That’s ‘cause he brought Alex for a fight against another power puncher (in boxing) and he’s focusing on defending big shots right here.

he was looking pretty good too, especially against someone double his size

Also, he was game. The other guy definitely looked like he was scared of pereiras power (don’t blame him).

As someone who's boxed for a long time, Alex's low guard style would be a nightmare for most boxing coaches lol But he's incredibly crafty, accurate, measured, and you can tell the guys really respected his power as they backed off when Alex started to let go. Quite a fighter.

[@taylorg2787]

Had the same impression.

[@lfmm97]

yeah he's not a particularly good boxer as you would expect but the potential is clearly there, he is a freak athlete. I believe he only started fighting in his 20's if I'm not mistaken? If that's the case, he reminds me of Deontay Wilder, someone who really just has superior genetics. If those two started fighting at a young age... oh boy.

[@ZakiBTW]

​@@lfmm97I mean he is a kickboxer and a MMA fighter and a high guard in both of those sports isn't as effective

[@donguapo7862]

Yeah its also what lost him his title unfortunately but ots gonna be interesting to see his ufc career unfold I like watching him a lot he's very calculated and strong willed

[@MexicanfNinja]

I'm far from anything but an amateur boxer but he looked to have a hitman like stance in the beginning of the video. I feel like the way Floyd jabs with arm already forward before the jab would work in mma well.

He was wobbling both of them and he damn near knocked the first guy out of the ring by hooking his arm 😂 Poatan Power is no joke.

[@brandonmcalpin9228]

It’s just technical, not necessarily power. He sets up his hips for leverage, then pops them like a corkscrew with his punches. That’s what gives it that insane pop.

[@supern0is349]

what i can see from this video is that poatan is working on the EXACT sequence that he had with adesanya. Everyone talks about the power but very few people talk about how precise he is, not only with his attacks but also with his training. Dude is always trying to improve on whatever weakness he sees.

[@Taj_Fitness]

It looks like the first boxer was working on his defenses while letting Alex work. His slips were really good and timing as well. All rounds were great. Much respect to all of them.

[@NeoValeTudo]

To me it looked like he didn’t have a choice, Alex was all over him and was dominating him with his ring generalship. His defense was very good though

[@ForceGhostAnakin]

@@NeoValeTudo this. Alex’s cadence is absurd, his guard tells you the jab is always there, but he throws at an almost entirely random pace. It’s truly wild to watch, I’ve never seen a style more perfect for making someone hesitant

@@user-ij4jj7on1v Do you understand anything about boxing and weight classes? I know you've never been in a fight in your life but if you understood boxing you'd know that pro-boxers (these kids are not) would have punched Pereira unconscious for the aggression in his delivery. He's a 36 yr old experienced professional fighter who, at pro boxing level, would rank as a heavyweight. Maybe you should stop wetting your gay panties for him, and demand he spar Canelo or Bivol. Then calmly watch what happens when you hit serious boxers that way. Unless he wants to cheat and grapple them, he will end up in a coma. In the meantime, go to a gym and learn to fight instead of being a cowardly snarky little bitch, when others have the courage to do it and you don't.

He has the strength (of an upper tier) agility (you can see it but it's there) powerful balance, Killer body level shots and the height to weight ratio is incredible. reminds be of a Benavidez at 168, canelo at 147 but even bigger and firmer then both at his UFC weight.

POATAN MOSTRO DO UFC! ESCREVENDO SUA HISTÓRIA....

[@LoboChiburui666]

Everyone seeing the short clip dont realize alex could have starched this guy at any time. The guy had to wear headgear. Good session but the long jabs and body shots really crushed him in the end.

Happy birthday to you, Champ❤️

[@ryuken5629]

This was fun to watch. Alex can definitely box. I’d love to see him compete in another boxing match

[@amcboxingfanatic303]

He just might hahaha

[@ashleen9521]

He started as boxer then he started kickboxing

[@KingJunie]

@@Swaze742he actually did, you can find one boxing pro bout of Alex on KZbin somewhere

[@MrKarlozz]

His boxing needs a lot of improvement. But it'll come with time

[@ricardoalho2973]

Esses treinos são melhores q muitas lutas oficiais. Intenso

[@alvahgilson1501]

Good luck on your upcoming fight.. I've been a fan of Glover for many years also have become a big fan of Alex now..

[@anthonycarreira8045]

Alex hits so hard without winging punches my god

[@blackslav1497]

The lord was like, big penis, or heavy hands?

[@AGNARAIKA]

O segundo lutador é ótimo. Ótimo sparring para Poatan, embora eu não ache que ele aguente muito tempo.

[@thisisnottaco]

I'm happy to see DC in your corner! Let's goooooo!

[@Therealtorjosue]

Alex movement and punching is so crisp and on point 😮‍💨

[@crazydolphin33]
