– I’m ready again, because I didn’t hurt anything, I didn’t take any punches. I’m ready to fight again. Whoever the UFC puts in I will fight. I think now they’re going to give me a higher ranked guy, but I’m show man from the UFC, I’m ready to put on a show and that’s what I’m doing – said the Brazilian fighter.
Pereira asked to be part of the UFC card in Rio and delivered a great fight to the fans and organizers. The triumph achieved at the event represented the eighth consecutive victory for the fighter – who hasn’t known what it’s like to lose since February 2020. With the sequence of positive results, he awaits the opportunity to compete for a title soon.
– I just train, come and do my job. What will happen is in God’s hands, in God’s plans. I train a lot for this. Today I’m fighting hard for the result, I want to get to the belt and it’s working. I put on my show, I came out victorious and it’s working. That’s what matters – explained Michel.
Pereira is popularly known for doing some acrobatics during fights. Against Ihor Potieria, it was no different. Before using the guillotine choke and submitting his opponent, the Brazilian flipped in the air and fell on top of the Ukrainian. Despite taking risks with this style of play, the fighter does not intend to change the way he presents himself at events.
-It’s my style of fighting, everything has a risk and that’s how I am. I always take risks and that’s why I’m growing, that’s why I’m a UFC showman today. This is my way of fighting – said Pereira.
