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

Artem Vakhitov, the last fighter to defeat Alex Pereira in kickboxing and currently helping Ciryl Gane with his training camp, stated in a recent interview that Pereira will lose his next fight because he has gained too much muscle mass. The post also mentions several other MMA storylines: Jiri Prochazka responded to criticism from Carlos Ulberg by calling him a stripper; Carlos Prates did a face-off with his daughter and had to explain who the bad guy was; Islam Makhachev confirmed he has started training camp for his next fight; and Khamzat Chimaev discussed Sean Strickland's trash talk, noting that when his friends approached Strickland in person, Strickland immediately backed down and said he was just promoting the fight. Chimaev compared the situation to being entertained by a clown at a circus rather than being angry.
