How many fights does Alex Pereira need to win in a row, so that he fights for the MW title?

[Takes Two To Tango]

Hopefully Izzy is still holding the title when he gets his shot.

I'd say if he wins this upcoming fight. He'll then have to fight a top 10, then a top 5 and then he gets his title shot. So that makes it 3 in a row I believe.

That's how I see it.

Your scenario would make 4 UFC wins in a row, which is fair. I'd say 3-4 at least.

 

[Bowel-forged Stool]

The number of fights he has to get there is directly proportional to how much the ufc loves Izzy. Izzy did just defend Rogan..

 

[Question]

First reply got it right.
3-4 is good enough.

If he wins tomorrow he'll be at 2 and should get a top 10/15 opponent.

 

[ShtickandMove]

I think the UFC must have discussed this with Adesanya just as they were signing this past deal.

3-0 by ko in the ufc will get him a guaranteed fight with Israel.

 

[CC27]

You think if he beats Silva on Sat he's getting a top 10 guy next?

If he wins tomorrow maybe they give him a back of the top 15 guy like Edmen. Then a top 10 ish guy then a top 5 guy. So that would be 5 total UFC fights before a title shot and thats IF he gets a top 15 guy next. If he gets another middle of the div guy its gonna be longer.

How he looks tomorrow will probably determine how fast UFC push him but either way I dont think he's getting a top 10 guy next.

No it's 3 wins a row and than a title shot. I don't know. I'm not good in math. lol

Well its a role reversal this time, Periera got protected and gifted a win when he was outclassed by Izzy.
This won't happen if they fight in the UFC.

 

[Washad]

Dana would never risk it. UFC is down bad, Adesanya got all these skinny nerds creaming their panties and buying Venom fight kits, gotta keep him safe!

 

[MMA Maine-iac]

Depends on how much the UFC thinks they can make off another grudge match. He might need to only win one or two. Or he could lose and get a title shot. You just never know.

 

[Sonny Qc]

a win Vs Bruno Silva is a good win imo.
top contender next, then I'm okay with a title shot.

 

[Fioretti]

He already has 1 win in the UFC. Also, you're misusing "than" a lot. You mean to say "then". Then is used when describing something that comes next or after, and than is used to compare.

English and math, homie.

That seems fair enough, considering his tenured combat sport background. I'm just sick of seeing so many "hype jobs" getting to cut the line, and here we ACTUALLY HAVE someone who deserves to cut the line a bit. So, like you say, if he wins send him straight to top 10, if another W, to top 5, and then give the man a shot against his old rival.

lol yeah fair enough. Thanks for the home schooling.

 

[Linelo]

If he beats Bruno then he’s 1-2 away.

If they wanted to fast track then Costa with a title shot on the line for Perreira only. If not then a lower top 10 MW followed by a top 5 MW for a title shot if he wins.

It also depends on how soon Adesanya/Cannonier is booked.

 

[Emjay]

Depends on HOW he wins

 

[Shay Brennan]

around 3 in a row

 

[smiles mma]

Depends who he gets after Silva, if he gets done hype and pulls a solid top 10. He could be fighting a top contender after that. basically I'm agreeing with everyone else says 3-4

 

[sdpdude9]

Wouldn’t be surprised at all if they fast tracked him and gave him favorable match ups. 2 more after this I wouldn’t be surprised if they gave it to him, the story writes itself to sell the fight.

They love money more,and this is a money fight. Well moreso than anybody else right now.
