On an unexpected night at UFC 313, Magomed Ankalaev dethroned Alex Pereira to claim the light heavyweight championship in Las Vegas. With a strategy based on constant harassment, he was able to neutralize the Brazilian and take control of the fight, winning by unanimous decision.
With a relentless strategy, Ankalaev managed to subdue Pereira and make the fight his own. In the end, with the belt in his hands and glory at his feet, the Dagestani warrior took advantage of the attention to taunt the Brazilian.

A possible rematch is in the hands of Dana White, who will have the final say on whether they will face each other again. Alex has insisted on it, and now it seems Ankalaev is not averse to the idea.
Magomed Ankalaev is ready for a possible rematch
The Dagestani used his social media to respond to the challenge that Pereira has been talking about a lot, and his response makes it very clear that he is ready.
“Alex, I’m ready to give you the rematch if you really want it,” Ankalaev wrote. “Just get ready for a storm in the next fight, the storm you never faced in this sport.”
For his part, Alex has not yet responded to the threats, but it seems that he will raise his hand and not hide.
Alex Pereira has everything to lose in a potential rematch
Many UFC experts are not in favor of a rematch. Chael Sonnen has criticized the idea, pointing out that Alex Pereira would be in a lose-lose situation.
Chael believes that Alex Pereira was not competitive in the first fight, something that leaves him marked going into a second fight.
“The first fight was 4-1,” Sonnen said. “It was four rounds to one. It really wasn’t very competitive.
And of course, it’s not just the experts; some fans and MMA cognoscenti think a rematch would be a bad idea because Pereira didn’t measure up in that first fight. He looked good avoiding takedowns, but his performance was inconsistent and the Brazilian surely knows he didn’t live up to expectations.
There is still no date set for the rematch, but we should definitely keep an eye out for any news. It seems like it’s only a matter of time before Ankalaev sends that message.
