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

Artem Vakhitov, who is assisting Ciryl Gane in his training camp and was the last fighter to defeat Alex Pereira in kickboxing, stated in a recent interview that Pereira will lose his upcoming fight because he has gained too much muscle mass. Meanwhile, Jiri Prochazka responded to criticism from Johnny Walker by dismissing complaints from "a stripper." Carlos Prates and his daughter staged a face-off with Jack Della Maddalena, with Prates clarifying to his daughter who the "bad guy" is. Islam Makhachev confirmed he has started preparation for his next bout. Khamzat Chimaev responded to Sean Strickland's trash talk with a measured reaction, comparing Strickland to a circus clown and noting that Strickland's friends told him he only talks trash to promote fights.
