Media Alex Pereira dropped in sparring ( Old Video )

This is the 4th or 5th time I've seen clips of asked being taken to school by a boxer over the last few months.

Just reminds us that boxing, MT/KB, and MMA are similar but still different. Alex is a world champion MMA fighter and a KB champ. He's not a boxer.
 
Lol it actually was before Poatan's fight vs Jamahal Hill. They even made a video later admitting it was trolling at that very moment
 
Once upon a time. We would never have seen this video. I kind of liked the sport more back then.

Let the prognostications fly.

Makes sense.


Even though as much as I like Alex he's frustrating to watch with those hands so low and it's just a matter of time when this will happen for real.

He knows he's doing. 25-3 amateur boxing record all wins by knock out and only score card loses.
40 kickboxing fights and only stopped twice by TKO early in his career.
14 MMA fights and gets ko for the first time by Izzy in his entire 82 fight career. And this honestly because he fought at Middleweight where his chin isn't as durable with less fluid in the brain.

His hands low is by design to get the opponent to attack so he can counter. It also makes his punches harder to see coming from different angles where ever he decides to punch. That's why people don't see his left hook coming. There is rarely any telegraphing. Only the set up shots are.
It's actually easier to defend takedowns with the hands lower too.
And better for conserving energy rather then being tense. Like how Alex got Izzy out of there in the 5th round. It's due to his energy management.

I'm pretty sure the two weight KB and two weight MMA champ knows what he's doing over the plebs on this forum.

I'm not saying he doesn't know what he's doing, just that it's frustrating to watch.

The twitter account, or the OP believing it?

The twitter account has a joke name, but doesn't seem to be implying it's a parody account and does make real tweets.

The OP seemingly has believed it was true until told not to.
