Pereira's former rival Vakhitov predicts champion's loss due to weight gain

Artem Vakhitov, who is helping Ciryl Gane prepare and was the last fighter to defeat Alex Pereira in kickboxing, claims Pereira will lose because he has gained too much muscle mass. Jiri Prochazka fired back at criticism from Ulgberg, dismissing complaints from a "stripper." Carlos Prates had a face-off with his daughter and Madalena. Islam Makhachev confirmed he has begun preparation for his next fight. Hamzat Chimaev responded to Sean Strickland's comments with surprising composure, comparing Strickland to a circus clown and noting that when approached by Chimaev's friends, Strickland claimed he was just promoting a fight.
