    How the Hell you get lucky 5 times in a row over nothing but champs? Jiri had 3 fights and got a title shot. Chandler 1 fight, got title shot. ALL former Champions get pushed and Poaton was former double champ. All the current content creator’s coping so hard after boosting Hill like some god before the fight and then after the fight, the bs excuses are embarrassing. Jan was considered a good grappler, had just went to a draw with Ankalea and smothered Izzy. Jiri wrestled well against Glover but loses to Poaton and then fans call him washed. These lay and pray ball sniffers can’t stand a fighter can win without laying on top of the other fighter like it’s their girlfriend☝️🤔

Ikram, Anthony Hernandez and Khamzat would ragdoll Izzy but all these UFC shills never said shit about it cause Izzy is the UFCs golden child and has the biggest Dana White privilege ever. Dricus will also take him down and beat him tf up.. Also which wrestler should Alex have fought at 205?? There are literally none besides Ankalaev lol, Jan literally outgrappled and outstriked Izzy easily god these UFC shills make me so angry... how is it Alexs fault that 185 then and 205 now does not have wrestlers? They are all so salty that Alex already accomplished way more than they all have in their entire career lmao. Bisping might be the worst male champion in the last 10 years, fluked a title win and then ducked Yoel and Rob and called out nr13 ranked 46yo Hendo.. Weidman also extremely overrated man.. Only won cause Silva got way too over confident just like Alex vs Izzy 4.

      Most are baffled by the fact Poaton only needs to strike to win at mma and are butt hurt because the strangle hold wrestlers have had on the sport for years is phasing out. I think wrestling is the best base to start with, as it gives you that 2nd option when the striking isn’t working and completely changes the feel of the fight. Guys like Silva, Adesanya, Whitaker, etc proved that high level strikers can be successful as long as their Takedown defense is on point. That and being able to get up and/or keep yourself safe while on the ground is paramount obviously. The way the sport evolves so fast this could be expected☝️🤔

    Lol Weidman and Bisbing are salty because Alex has surpassed both of their careers combined in under ten fights. Neither middleweight or light heavyweight are known for having strong grapplers in this era. The best wrestler at middleweight when Pereira was climbing the rankings was Derek Brunson (who would've gotten smoked by poatan). At light heavyweight the best wrestler is Ankalaev and he will be next in line for the title shot.

    To be honest, he doesn't really need a good ground game as long as he a very solid takedown defense and ability to get back on his feet. That's how it has been for some fighters who are strikers (Max Holloway, Conor McGregor, Israel Adesanya, Stepen Thompson, etc). Unless there's a relentless high pace wrestler in those divisions, I don't see Pereira having much trouble, I'm not sure Ankaleav will be enough, the only way I see him having a hard match is if Chimaev gets there in time in rankings, or if DC comes out of retirement lol

    Casuals aren't ready to hear the reality. I love watching Alex fight, but denying the fact he hasn't fought any good wrestler who is disposed to take the fight to the ground is dumb. But I have to say that's not Alex's fault, he does what he needs to do to finish a fight. I don't know if it's arrogance in some cases or this warrior mentality in Jiri's case, but they all want to finish him where he's at his best, they all want to trade punches with someone who's levels above them and that's being dumb. Someone who wants that win does what's in his power for that belt, that's why Jones took Gane to the ground, that's why Georges submitted Bisping, that's why Miesha Tate choked out Holm...trying to trade punches with Alex like you're better is being disrespectful to his martial artist journey and your own journey. Now it's all on Magomed's head and heart, if he's ready to be the best version of himself against someone who is always with that mentality. Kill or be killed.

    Getting your BJJ black belt immediately after starching a striker is wild, but I have a ton of respect for Glover Teixeira, so I have no doubt that Pereira earned that belt on the mats, not just because of his performances in the Octagon. If Pereira destroys Ankalaev despite being tested on the ground, there will be no more arguments about Pereira's legitimacy as a true mixed martial artist (not that there are many arguments now).

    I don't think you can say luck wasn't a factor at all in terms of him rising so quickly up the UFC's ladder. But that's mainly in terms of circumstances surrounding his fights like his great storyline with Izzy leading to his Middleweight Title win and his subsequent parlaying of that championship win into jumping into the highly unstable Light Heavyweight Title picture. As for the fights themselves, he's won pretty much all of them fair and square. Not his fault that his opponents think they can stand and trade with him for some reason.
