pereira should aim for that triple C status going up to heavyweight to become heavyweight champion after couple title defenses at light heavyweight, surpassing jon jones and to be the first ufc fighter to get 3 championship belts🫢🔥

Les't Go, Poatan Pereira! From Chile 🇧🇷👍🇨🇱.
aALEX POATAN CAN BE THE FIRST TRIPLE CHAMP IN HISTORY , IN TWO TO 3 YEARS BEING
Alex is in the talk for the most accomplished fighter of all time. A lot of special fighters tried their luck on two divisions and very few achieved success, Alex did in two different sports. Just "Special" is not doing him justice.
Volkanovski arguably the best featherweights in MMA history couldn't become double champ in almost 30 MMA fights. Pereira is a different breed for sure.
It's probably alex and cejudo

still can't get over the fact izzy flatlined him
@@The_Eagle_Official Alex owed Izzy. Izzy said that Alex would be in some bar while Izzy is successful. Because of Izzy's success, Alex went to the UFC, earned more money, became middleweight champion by beating an opponent he already beat 2 times. This is why he rematched Izzy in mma even though he was weight drained instead of going to light heavyweight right away, so that Izzy may have a chance to avenge his 3 losses.
@@The_Eagle_Official Alex loose to izzy on purpose so that he can save LHW and save izzy too imagine what would happen to izzy if he knows he lost 4times to the same guy he probably did something bad with himself so that's why Alex loose to that chinese genderbender

Absolutely a HoF, and by far one of the greatest *athletes* of all time.
Pereira must absolutely go down as possibly the greatest combat sports athlete of all time. His accomplishments are something that many will likely never achieve for generations to come. The guy isn't just unique, he is an absolute legend
I totally agree this man has become a champion in two different combat sports and majority of his fights or in ko fashion. Maybe not the greatest of all time in MMA but definitely the greatest combat sports athlete of all time.
@@LILDroidDEX The issues that he loses too much..
@@infiniterer287 he has only lost once to adesanya so far and he just proved he can over come a loss and get better. I dont mind seeing a loss as long as they are still able to get the belt back.

"Everyone Has a Plan Until They Get Kicked in the Leg 🗿"
Just the sheer fact that he became the only 2 division champ in glory till this day !!! Not only that but to come over to ufc and do the same exact thing !!!! Mannnnnnnn
Special? I’m special according to my mom bro, wtf. This guy is a fking legend. Plus, nobody talks about him accepting all these fights against the most bad mfkers on planet without even questioning it. He lined them up. He is not the GOAT because there’s no GOAT. There are different times! And now it’s definitely his time.
Lmao this comment is too good
We can talk about Jones being the best... But Jones took steroids and still had an extremely difficult fight against DC, we don't even know who would win if Jones hadn't taken them... Anderson He was beaten by Sonnen for 5 rounds before getting the victory.... Honestly.. I think that in terms of achievements: Jones is the greatest... But the best... We will never know.

He is my GOAT, he is the only one who make you think that your dreams can became true even after you think your time has passed. GSP, Jon Jones, Khabib and even Adesanya trained for almost the whole life, since childs. Alex Pereira was addicted to alcohol until 21 man, for me he is the GOAT!!!
👍🇧🇷.
I mean volk didn’t start till he was 20 as well and I would say he’s way better
You were right to not call him one of the GOATs BUT he is definitely one of a kind and I don't think we'll see anything like him again in the UFC. Huge respect for Alex Pereira becoming double double champ I hope to see some fantastic defences against Hill, Walker and maybe even a rematch with Jiri or Jan 🙏
Pereira against Hill gonna be dope, but I think Jamahal gonna bring Pereira to the ground game as soon as he can, even Jiri had to do it, it is too dangerous to exchange punches with a top tier world class kickboxer.
Magomed?

“Right hook hospital, left hook cemetery,knee paradise” - Alex pereira
The amount of cope from Izzy fans trying to take respect away from Pereira is crazy. Its impressive how yall survive holding onto that 1-3 record against Pereira like its a W while also having to see Izzy getting dominated by Sean Strickland.
They are even more delusional than Filipinos are with Manny Pacquiao.
Not only get dominated by Strickland, getting dominated by a Strickland that trained with Alex, i'm 100% sure that Pereira gave him a lot of info on Adesanya. And the match shows.
Ever since he came in the UFC I been a fan such a beast man all love and respect for pereira‼️
Greatest combat sports athlete of all time if he defends his belt once 🔥 💯
It’s funny how Izzy is the one that “beat that guy 1 time”😂 3-1 chama
I love Alex’s story because it’s so similar to my own. Was a drug addicted teenager from a young age in the streets, worked at a dead end tire shop, didn’t start training until he was 20-22 years old. And still became a world champ. Alex has started to become one of my favorite fighters of all time.
Wake up babe the fighting business uploaded
Alex is big enough to go up to heavyweight and try to be the first 3 division champ! At that point it would be undeniable that he is the goat
Definitely not the GOAT, but what he has done in his short MMA, or UFC career is incredibly successful. Sure he had a bit of a push, but how many times have we seen guys get preferential treatment and fall short? Poatan may not be here for long, but he is special.
It’s truly been an honor to witness this greatness. It’s beyond inspiring.
Alex saved me from losing money last weekend thank god for the double champ 🙏🙏
One of the greatest combat sports athletes of all time undeniably and it’s so insane how he did it so quickly. Special is almost and understatement and when you add in his life story, he was destined for this and I’m overjoyed for Poatan🇧🇷🙌🏿🔥

He now needs 2 belts in boxing😂

Hope he wins heavyweight champion too, it's tough but don't doubt him guys, he's for real
He is probably my favourite fighter ever man. Humble beast
He may not be the GOAT of UFC, But he is definitely one of the GOAT of combat sport. Dude was two division champion in kickboxing and now two division champion in UFC.
AND PEREIRA HAS NOT SMILED A SINGLE TIME THIS ENTIRE TIME ON CAMERA. Imagine that - tell me one other person
Kawhi Leonard
Joker
Alex smiled on camera plenty, especially around Glover and even Strickland
@happymradrian what? You mean that little twitch around the sides of his lips, the type dogs do when they growl? I suppose its possible to catch him on video in a frame or two here and there where those muscles are twitched just as if he was smiling. But he isnt. Trust me, he is not smiling. He is happy, but he ain't smiling in the traditional sense. His eyes are smiling, but his mouth looks like he might eat you for breakfast.
Wtf are u talking about? There are plenty of videos where Alex Pereira is grinning and laughing his ass off. Sorry he's not the never smiling stoic u imagine in ur wet dreams.
excellent video man! keep them going!
Excellent work as always mate!
This is a lesson to all never piss off a man who never smiles
Quickly one of my favorite fighters and youtubers (you)
Was waiting for the upload since the fight
Always the best. Love the content.
Pereira is a veteran of the game who said himself was feeling like he was at the end of the line. But Izzy woke up that hunger in him to become the GOAT of all MMA
I believe Alex does have an argument for G.O.A.T mt Rushmore. He was double champ in kickboxing and because two divisions champ in MMA while beating 4 former/current UFC champions. Khabib didn’t beat any UFC champions only former interim champions which are not real champions including the fact none of them have claimed the unified belt since. Alex isn’t the G.O.A.T but he’s in the top 10 for sure and arguably in the top 5 with his accomplishments.
"Khabib didn’t beat any UFC champions only former interim champions" Say what? Conor was a champion in 2 weight classes and both Dustin and Justin were interim champions in what was or still might be the most competitive weight class. Wtf are u even saying lmao
He doesnt beat Jones records buddy.
@@DecoreHQ okay my bad, beat the weight bully of 145 who beat Eddie Alvarez an undersized 155’er then never defended either belt. You’re right my bad. And again yes they were interim and both failed multiple times to capture the real thing. Interim belts aren’t shit. Never have and never will be. It’s so they can have title fights for the PPV’s. The division might be stacked but the opponents Khabib fought have only been fighting the same 4 guys and unable to keep a win streak going and refuse to fight anyone else in the top 10 until they were forced to recently because they kept losing. Khabib was a phenomenal grappler for mma but not the greatest fighter ever and not even in the discussion. Not enough title defenses, his resume of fighters beaten isn’t impressive and for 17 of his 29 wins were all cans fed to him in shady organizations in russia and a lot were 2 round fights. Jones, Silva and DJ were all champs for nearly as long as Khabibs entire career went. Khabib can be in the top 25-50 fighters of all time. But top 5/10? Nah. Not even close. Henry cejudo and Alex Pereira have a better record and accolades than Khabib. Alex has already beaten more UFC champs and gotten more belts than him. Stop dick riding Khabib. He was a good fighter and a great grappler but will never be the g.o.a.t. He just didn’t do enough.
@haillucifer69 Chill with ur book man :D I never said Khabib was the GOAT.. Simply correcting ur first statement. I love Pereira, Khabib, Conor, Jones, Silva, DJ.. All of them, cuz they're good fighters and inspire me. You clearly know your stuff and we agree that Khabib ain't the GOAT nor anywhere close and we also agree that Pereira's combat accolades are far superior to Khabib's accolades.
Khabib did beat RDA (who became LW champion after losing to Khabib) and McGregor (double champion)
That intro is too cool for itself I get goosebumps.
In 2025 Poatan should make his heavyweight debut.
What a beautiful video loved it ❤
Izzy definitely was talking about himself sitting at the pub saying, “I beat that guy one time.”
This guy stays pumping out quality fighting videos
pereira should aim for that triple C status going up to heavyweight to become heavyweight champion after couple title defenses at light heavyweight, surpassing jon jones and to be the first ufc fighter to get 3 championship belts🫢🔥
He'd have to get through Aspinall, and with all respect to Pereira I don't think that's happening.
Not near enough comments or likes for this caliber of work brother. Salute.
Solid video.
Your content is so elite bro
He beats past, current and future champions. In his short MMA career he already master prestiged. He'll forever be a legend.
Poatan e uma lenda aqui no brazil tambem um gladiador dos esportes da america Brazil 🇺🇲🇧🇷
We all knew something like this was coming from TFB. 🔥
another masterpiece TFB 🥲
Just imagine Pereira first defends his belt against Hill, then he defends it against Adesanya and goes to Heavyweight and the Heavyweight champ is not Aspinall because of injury but someone else and Alex sleeps that guy becaming triple ufc champ. That sounds nutty
Not trying to be a hater but he wouldn't be a tripple champ, he's not a double champ either. You need to hold the belts at the same time for that title.
Genderbender, the Last Dog Fiddler is punching air right now
That Christmas remix in the background go hard
Adesanya is obviously so scared to face him again. It is so blatant man.
I’m happy people are starting to notice it, I was called a hater and this, that and the third when I was saying it as it was happening. He ran from Dricus too.
This channel is dope
Decided to come back and watch this after he won at 300 and were hearing about HW now. JFC this man is unreal.
I am all in on the Alex train, Poatan prabens! Up to many more belts and Achievements!
KZhead's best MMA foo.
The narration of the videos is so captivating & compelling. It’s beautiful to listen to. What's the name of the song?
Man, Poatan is savage. I've been following MMA since I was a kid, during the days of Jose Aldo and Anderson Silva. Okay, there's Charles from the Bronx who made a good story, but Poatan is on another level, he's at the elite level of the sport here in Brazil, he's a legend, of 7 fights in the ufc, 4 were with former champions or active champions (adesanya, prochazka, jan, strickland), of the 7, he lost only one. In two years, 2 belts in two different categories, two belts in the biggest kickboxing event on the planet, glory hall of fame and probably in the future UFC hall of fame. I've never seen anything like this in Brazilian champions and few international champions match his legacy. And the coolest thing is that he was extremely poor during part of his life, and has a strong connection with the natives of the Amazon here in Brazil
Wonder if he could be a triple champion? 🤔 Heavyweight belt? That would insane.

may i ask how you make your voice sound so clear? is it the mic? do u do anything with the audio? Its literally like asmr listening to you
Tfb been waiting to glaze Alex like this 😭😭
Before and After for Dustin Porier please?
You mma guys really didn't get it. Even that clown Cormier didn't believe it when Rogan was hyping Poatan up (Before dissing him when Adesanya finally beat him). The guy is a master striker of the highest level PLUS he has one punch power. And he knows what he is doing with his guard, he's not an idiot. If you don't sub him, hold him down or somehow KO him (No, he does not have a "glass chin") He will smoke your boots or out strike you 😂😂
Just how good is Izzy then. I'm honestly asking as someone who isn't into kickboxing. Not a single fighter has been able to even try to stand with Poatan, except for Izzy who seems to handle him quite well (- getting TKOed in the last round of their 5rd fight).
@@noty69 He lost 3 times to Poatan and couldn't accomplish what he did to boot. You tell me?
@@PoatanCombatSportGOAT My question is did Poatan get KOed by an amateur in his last MW fight or by a good fighter.

People don't realise that craziest thing is he started kickboxing at 22 year old. This is very late to start a sport and accomplish somethig.
Alex Peireira is a helluva of a fighter 👏 😅he really is a cool dude who can just hit the switch with a left hook or any body part and out you go,it's been great to watch POATAN 🗿 do his thing in the UFC OCTAGON he might even knockout a HW at some point which if he does win the belt at HW then he has to be up there with the GOAT 🐐 talk FR
such insane peraira! we love him whew
Alex leg kicks look like sissy love taps. Like he seen a mosquito on your leg or something. But the damage they cause make it look like a semi truck ran your leg over. Its absolutely nuts how weak them kicks look. And he gets em on everybody because he doesnt even appear to put effort in them. No telegraph. Doesnt turn them over for power. Just a little swat. And bam you cant walk. Its crazy. His left is like that too. Alot of the ko shots dont even appear to be hard punches. Hes not putting 100% in them.. hut when they connect its like he hit them with a ball bat. His power is just different And when you mix it with a guy so skilled, its a hard night at the office for the best fighters in the world. And he usually wins. His chin worries me. But then again his ability to recover quickly is unsurpassed. At times it does seem like he gets rocked easy.. but then again when israel adesanya and jiri prochazka are the ones swangin... does that really expose a bad chin..idk. All i know is im a fan, and hes become one of my very favorites.
I guess hate can be used as a pretty strong fuel
5:42 "this guy might actually pull it of". Ever proofread, my guy? 😂
I just cant. Pereira is so wierd. He is like a natural disaster. He just appeared, everybody now loves him, he is one of the best strikers ever, HE BEAT ADESANYA, and people forget how good Izzy actually is. He beat Prohazka, and Jiri is a monster. He might actually be first 3 weight categories champion. He is the biggest personality in sport without saying a word. Pereira is 8th wonder of the world 🌎 . Wierdest guy ever. 🗿👑
Oh yeah baby !! 💯💯💯
whats the song in the background at the end?
He's an absolute killer. Brazilian proud!!
The barbie bells for adesanya so fitting. 😂
Alex Pereira and David Benavidez are my two favorite fighters.
We just have to enjoy the next 4-5 years we have of Poatan… I don’t think we’ll have another guy with his power, Aura, and presence like Alex he is a once in a generation
this a ''im literally him'' moment
"I beat that guy one time" - Izzy
Alex should try and win the heavyweight title could definitely happen if in a couple of years from now when hones is retired someone like gane is holding the belt just find it hard to see anyone other than aspinall holding it
