Media Best of Alex Pereira | Glory Kickboxing Look Back

Doesn't UFC have a bunch of Glory cards on Fight Pass? Glory shouldn't have copyright claimed it though, having this video out there would've been great promotion for them.
 
who now ironically is Poatan’s main sparring partner for Izzy
good sparring partner honestly, long ass reach and taller than pereira, also fought adesanya but lost
i wonder who adesanya brought in to mimic pereira ? he shows almost nothing of his camp beside montages he put on his YT channle
 
Thanks for the vids @BoxerMaurits. What does Poatan mean?
No problem bro!
Poatan means “hands of stone”. He got the name from his indigenous background.
Should check out this thread, I posted several cool video’s in it regarding Pereira. The vid in the OP is about his background and will to fight

And this one got a lot of recent training footage:

Indeed. He’s listed as 6’5”but I bet he’s around 6’7”. Really solid training partner for this camp.
I talked to Yousri Belgaroui at LFL 6 in Amsterdam. He told me he was going to fly to America to train with Alex Pereira at Teixeira’s gym, as they both really liked their training sessions together in the Netherlands (Pereira trained at several gyms in the Netherlands the week after he attended Glory 81 in Germany back in August).
He said he was going to be Poatan’s main sparring partner for Israel Adesanya (Yousri also fought Izzy back in his Glory days).
He also told me that he’s going to fight for LFA next. Poatan’s manager Jorge Guimãraes arranged that for him
