Please be real

 

[Daniel Henry]

Alex by head kick from hell. Calling it now

 

[sdpdude9]

I really hope so. This fight makes so much sense, should have happened already.

 

[nonoob]

CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS ONE. . .

ANK'S GONNA GET MAJOR

CHAMA TRAUMA.​

 

[Natural Order]

Its the only fight that makes sense in the division.

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Ariel is a clown. Pereira will be moving up to heavyweight in 6 months - Dana

Nice! Cant wait for UFC 313

 

[Soggust]

"That's the plan"

lol

 

[VinceArch]

Hope it's true! Time to see if Alex can grapple and time to see if Ank can stand with Pereira. May the best man win.

 

[markys00]

Conspiracy theories are a-flowin in me. This seems oddly too close to ramadan. All this talk about moving up...

At the very least hes a negotiation tool for Dana and co

 

[Domitian]

UFC probably told Ank you either take this fight now or you have to win 2 more before a shot.

 

[FreedomCricket]

Well they have until March 1st to reasonably fight. Thats 2 days into ramadan but its last day of fight week/weigh in. Would be do-able, thought the rehydration period would be effected.

Ariel Halwani

 

[Ares Black]

I really hope so. This fight makes so much sense, should have happened already.

It's the only fight that makes sense for either of them IMO

 

[Ares Black]

Please be real

I mean, love him.or hate him, Ariel Helwani is about as credible as rumours can get.

 

[ThaiSexPills]

I’ll just be glad to see this booked so pereira haters can finally officially run out of excuses and will be forced to admit he’s that good

 

[Pechan]

Dana booking Alex vs Volkov as we speak just to spite Ariel.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

Ariel is a very good source. So I believe him.

Good this is the fight to make.
