Pereira Too Heavy? 😬

Artem Vakhitov says Alex Pereira gained too much weight and it will hurt him against Ciryl Gane 😬

"You can see by his current shape he gained extra weight. He'd need it for wrestling. But it won't play in his favor when it comes to striking. Ciryl is a natural heavyweight, and Alex now weighs almost as much as him. It will play against him."

Vakhitov is the last man to beat Pereira in kickboxing. They fought twice in GLORY. Pereira won the first by split decision at GLORY 77. Vakhitov won the rematch by majority decision at GLORY 78 to reclaim the light heavyweight title. That was Pereira's final kickboxing fight before moving to MMA.

10 combined rounds of experience against Pereira. Now he's in France training Gane and saying the extra weight is a weakness 😳
