Din Thomas, a seasoned figure in the fighting community, was impressed by Alex Pereira’s recent performance in the UFC. Following Pereira’s dominant victory at UFC 303, Thomas feels it’s time for Pereira to set his sights higher and create a legacy.
Thomas proposes that Pereira should contemplate moving up to the heavyweight division to take on fighters like Jon Jones. Even though Jones might opt for a rematch with Stipe Miocic over facing Pereira, Thomas envisions a scenario where Jones could potentially clash with Pereira instead of Tom Aspinall.
In Thomas’ view, Pereira is an outstanding fighter who has rapidly gained recognition in the sport. He draws parallels between Pereira and past luminaries such as B.J. Penn, emphasizing that Pereira’s accomplishments stem from a blend of skill, resolve, and strategic career decisions. Thomas is awestruck by Pereira’s triumphs and believes the UFC is privileged to witness such a remarkable talent in action.
