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

Artem Vakhitov, who is helping Ciryl Gane prepare and was the last person to defeat Alex Pereira in kickboxing, has stated in a recent interview that Pereira will lose his next fight because he has gained too much muscle mass. Vakhitov believes the added weight will negatively impact Pereira's performance. The post also briefly mentions that Islam Makhachev confirmed starting his training camp, Jiri Prochazka responded to accusations from Uesako Ulgberg by dismissing him as a stripper, and Hamzat Chimaev addressed Sean Strickland's trash talk by calling him a circus clown. Additional comments from Colby Covington about UFC's lack of interest in promoting him are also mentioned.
