Alex Pereira is one of the UFC’s most adored and well-liked fighters right now. Fans are ecstatic to witness the light heavyweight champion’s distinct and cold-blooded nature. Contrary to that, ‘Poatan’ is a gentleman with a lighthearted and helpful side. It is something that a troubled fan recently discovered.
Alex Pereira recently went viral for helping a fan on the highway by fixing his car’s tire. In the video, the fan can be seen thanking the champion for coming up to help him. Pereira couldn’t understand the fan due to the obvious language barrier, but he enjoyed helping a needy fan.
Over the last few years, Pereira has become the night and shining armor for Dana White. ‘Poatan’ has always stepped in to save a fight card on short notice whenever the promotion has asked him to. Recently, he replaced Conor McGregor after the Irishman pulled out his name from UFC 303. As such, the Brazilian will make around $5 million to substitute the biggest superstar of the promotion.
Other than this, Pereira’s UFC career has been nothing but astronomical. ‘Poatan’ has defeated five former world champions in his UFC run. The Brazilian fighter managed to stop the dominant reign of Israel Adesanya and then moved up to capture the light heavyweight title. All this has helped the fighter to gain a cult following.
