Alex Pereira has once again proven his dominance in the UFC, knocking out Khalil Rountree in the main event of UFC 307 to defend his light heavyweight title. With his impressive win, the question arises – should Pereira stay at 205 pounds or make the move up to heavyweight to challenge the likes of Jon Jones or Stipe Miocic?
In a new episode of Between the Links, the panel delves into the aftermath of the recent pay-per-view event, analyzing Pereira’s remarkable performance and comparing it to other UFC champions. They also discuss Julianna Pena’s victory in regaining the women’s bantamweight title, the controversial decision in Raquel Pennington’s fight, and other notable moments from the card. Additionally, they touch on the upcoming UFC Vegas 98 event featuring Brandon Royval vs. Tatsuro Taira, PFL’s pay-per-view pricing, Donn Davis’ divisive comments, and more.
Hosted by Mike Heck, the debate features MMA Fighting’s Jed Meshew and UFC analyst Din Thomas.
