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

Artem Vakhitov, the last fighter to defeat Alex Pereira in kickboxing and currently helping Ciryl Gane prepare, stated in a recent interview that Pereira will lose because he has gained too much muscle mass. Jiri Prochazka responded to accusations from Uesigi Olgberg by dismissing complaints from "a stripper." Islam Makhachev confirmed he has begun training camp for his next fight. Hamzat Chimaev commented on Sean Strickland's trash talk, comparing it to a circus clown and stating his friends approached Strickland who immediately backed down, claiming he was just promoting the fight. Colby Covington expressed frustration that UFC shows no interest in promoting him or featuring him at major events like the White House fight card.
