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

Artem Vakhitov, the last fighter to defeat Alex Pereira in kickboxing and currently helping Ciryl Gane with his preparation, stated in a recent interview that Pereira will lose his upcoming fight because he has gained too much muscle mass. In related news, Jiri Prochazka responded to accusations from Carlos Ulberg by dismissing the criticism as coming from a "stripper." The post also mentions that Islam Makhachev confirmed he has begun preparation for his next fight. Additionally, when asked about his reaction to Sean Strickland's comments, Khamzat Chimaev remained composed, comparing the situation to watching a clown at a circus and noting that Strickland's friends told him Sean admitted he's just promoting the fight.
