Quick read

Alex Pereira has hinted at a possible end to his fighting career, saying he is now fearful of returning to competition and believes he may have already accomplished everything he set out to do. Ian Garry, meanwhile, vowed to be more active as welterweight champion than Islam Makhachev, claiming Makhachev fights only once a year and pledging more high-level bouts if he captures the title. UFC also launched AI-generated rankings, which placed Jan Blachowicz 15th at light heavyweight rather than fourth as in traditional media rankings, while both systems will run in parallel.
