Quick read
Dana White addressed rumors of Alex Pereira moving to heavyweight for an interim title shot against Ciryl Gane while Tom Aspinall recovers from surgery. White stated he would accommodate Pereira, praising his history of stepping up, potentially making him the first three-division champion. Pereira, a two-time light heavyweight champ and ex-middleweight king, has no fight scheduled. Meanwhile, White dismissed Khamzat Chimaev's hints at jumping to 205lbs via a social media post, insisting the middleweight champ defend his title won against Dricus du Plessis in August first. This matters as it shapes title pictures in multiple divisions. Pereira could fight soon at HW; Chimaev stays at MW for now.
