Tom Aspinall's teammate claims Alex Pereira rejected fight with Aspinall

Phil De Fries, a training partner of Tom Aspinall, has stated that Alex Pereira previously turned down an opportunity to fight Aspinall.

The post asks followers to weigh in on which opponent would be more challenging for Pereira from a stylistic perspective. No specific timeline or context for when Pereira allegedly declined the fight was provided. The claim suggests ongoing discussion about potential heavyweight super-fights involving the light heavyweight champion.
