Another week, another angry tirade aimed at Alex Pereira by whom we accept is Magomed Ankalaev who runs his X account.
Ankalaev is in the main event of UFC 313 opposite Pereira for the light heavyweight throne. As the No. 1 UFC Light Heavyweight candidate, Ankalaev has long been considered the Boogeyman of the Division. After several disappointing results, he fought with tooth and nail to secure his second title shot. That is why he would like to make a statement when he meets Pereira in the Octagon in March.
Ankalaev is angry with Pereira's appearance on UFC 312, where 'Poatan' agreed to fight Dricus du Plessis in a matchup with a double championship. 'Patan' was also filmed on creating a social media dance with Charles Oliveira and Tai Tuisa.

Magomed Ankalaev goes the earth on Alex Pereira Na-Puc 312 on Alex Pereira
Ankalaev took Pereira to X Post-Puc 312 and destroyed Pereira for his antics of Vechtweek.
“Brazil, sorry for what I'm going to do with your boy,” wrote Ankalaev. “I never want to hurt anyone in my life as if I want to hurt Alex. He is a fake modest boy, “he continued in another post before he added one. “I climb mountains, chop wood, swim in ice -cold lakes and Alex has made dances and made videos such as Tiktokkuiks.”

Ankalaev is generally considered as the most difficult test of Pereira so far. 20-1-1 (1NC) and 11-1-1 (1NC) in the UFC, the only defeat of Ankalaev was a wild card input by Paul Craig in the dying seconds of his debut fight in 2018; Ankalaev has since been unbeaten in 13 fights.
He gets the chance to etch his name in the annals of the UFC history with a victory over Pereira at UFC 313.
