PEREIRA TO HEAVYWEIGHT?! KO'S & 4 HOUR NOTICES | REACTIONS WITH VOLK | UFC 303

What a card!

[@AlexVolkanovskiOfficial]

What is next for Poatan?

[@waywordprairie922]

jon jones....LFG.. although would be cool to see tommy aspinol aswell... just because so much lore around bones and alex would be a bigger fight for goat status.

[@waywordprairie922]

also, whats next for volk?? proper legend as you guys say!

[@robertomugabe11]

Poatan vs Volk. volk will destroy Poaton in first round.

[@y3ager656]

Ankalaev first and then HW it is.

[@i.d0ni870]

My opinion if he stays in lightweight next def can be Magomed Ankalaev. Jamahal Hill needs a win before rematch against Chama Jiri and Jamahal could fight next. If he moves to Heavyweight Tom first has to lose his next fight then they can think of Alex Vs Bones but I think Derrick Lewis Vs Alex would be great to step into heavyweight I mean Derrick Lewis has fought the best people before and has been around for a while would be a great fight. Imagine Tom vs Alex on ultimate fighter winner gets a fight with Bones himself 😅😂

I hope he takes a break. I think his chin was a little weak today compared to the first fight. He still has several fight left in his career. Let him rest and recover and he will be back stronger than ever.

[@ronblevins3346]

He definitely lives his life with honor. Both of them do actually. It was tough seeing how disappointed Jiri was. I think his style is just too wide open.

Lopes making 45 then getting shafted by Ortega's team at 3 in the morning to switch to 55, then getting switched again and having to weigh in at 65 instead of just fully rehydrating would for sure have had an impact to his gas tank.

[@dodo19923]

Honestly, both were winners imo. Ik Lopes got the win before people jump on me but both fighter's stock goes up after this. Ige stepped in on 4 hours and Lopes got fucked around and had to go up essentially 2 weight classes (near enough). Win Win for both and a great fight to watch.

[@aisforannihilation1662]

To b fair, Ortega looked awful. Something was definitely wrong there with him. Definitely sucks for Lopes but these guys r human & Ortega is clearly not well. Glad he didn't fight altho I was definitely looking forward to it. Perhaps rebook later

[@justkeating8399]

Are you surprised that Ilia hasn’t booked his first title defense yet? I imagine that when you said you were gonna take a bit of a break and let the division move on for a fight without you that by July Ilia would have either fought or had the fight date scheduled and coming up soon by now. The last Featherweight Title fight that did not include the name Alexander Volkanovski was in July of 2019 when Max fought Edgar. It’s almost getting to the point where you get your break AND you will get your rematch as Ilia’s first (and hopefully only) defense. If your next match is for the Title; it will be your 10th consecutive title fight. Your future is in the Hall of Fame; even if you never step foot in the Octagon again.

[@ARMY-ep6fz]

It seems like Alex's confidence is sky high, he is going into every fight unfazed no matter if he's injured or if it's short notice. He has a good chance to catch Tom at heavyweight and capture 3 belts. But I would pick Tom in that fight because Tom is big and he's a smart fighter. He would use that size advantage to take Alex down and submit him. That's what everyone seems to be doing wrong, It seems like everyone doesn't want to take the easiest path to victory and take Alex down. He's one of the highest level kickboxers in the UFC. I would say Alex and Izzy are the best. So why not fight smart and take him down. Tom is a very intelligent fighter and he would use his takedowns and BJJ. But Alex can knockout anyone, so it's not impossible for Alex to claim a third belt eventually.

[@chunkchasers]

Alex Pereiras next step is whatever they want to throw at him he ain’t like these boxers are nowadays duckin fights he will be ready win or lose he’s a warrior at heart just like a lot of our ufc fighters are 💯💪🏼Hands down to all our ufc fighters that don’t duck any fights and go out there put there LIFE ON THE LINE and step in that octagon !👊🏻💯
