Artem Vakhitov predicts Alex Pereira will lose due to excessive weight gain

Artem Vakhitov, who was the last person to defeat Alex Pereira in kickboxing and is now helping Ciryl Gane prepare, stated in a recent interview that Pereira will lose his next fight because he has gained too much mass. Jiří Procházka responded to accusations from Ulfberg by dismissing criticism from "a stripper." Carlos Prates and his daughter did a face-off with Jack Della Maddalena, with Prates clarifying to his daughter who the bad guy was. Islam Makhachev confirmed he has started training camp for his next fight. The post also mentions that Khamzat Chimaev responded to Sean Strickland's trash talk with self-awareness, explaining he finds it amusing rather than angering, comparing it to watching a clown at a circus and noting Strickland's friends say he's just promoting the fight.
