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

Artem Vakhitov, who is helping Ciryl Gane prepare and was the last fighter to defeat Alex Pereira in kickboxing, stated in a recent interview that Pereira will lose because he has gained too much muscle mass. Jiri Prochazka responded to accusations from Pert Ölberg by dismissing the Swede as a stripper. Carlos Prates and his daughter did a face-off with Jack Della Maddalena, with Prates having to clarify to his daughter who the bad guy was. Islam Makhachev confirmed he has started preparing for his next fight. In response to Sean Strickland's comments, Khamzat Chimaev showed self-awareness, saying he finds Strickland amusing rather than angering, comparing him to a circus clown and noting that Strickland's friends approached Chimaev claiming he was just promoting the fight.
