Artem Vakhitov claims Alex Pereira gained too much muscle mass

Artem Vakhitov, who is helping Ciryl Gane prepare for his upcoming fight and was the last person to defeat Alex Pereira in kickboxing, stated in a recent interview that Pereira will lose because he has gained too much muscle mass. Meanwhile, Jiri Prochazka responded to accusations from Ulgberg by saying he doesn't want to listen to complaints about being fake from a stripper. Carlos Prates and his daughter had a face-off with Jack Madalena, with Prates having to explain to his daughter who the bad guy is. Islam Makhachev confirmed he has begun preparation for his next fight. Hamzat Chimaev displayed awareness when asked about his reaction to Sean Strickland's trash talk, comparing it to not getting angry at a clown in a circus and noting that Strickland tells people privately he's just promoting the fight.
