Dana White Won’t Rule Out Another Alex Pereira-Israel Adesanya Fight
During his post-fight interview with UFC color commentator Joe Rogan, Alex Pereira called for another showdown with Adesanya, who has said he’s taking a break from pro MMA competition. During the UFC 295 post-fight press conference, White said another Pereira vs. Adesanya showdown isn’t out of the question at some point.
“Listen, anything is possible,” White said. “I mean Alex moved up a weight class, I don’t see Izzy moving up a weight class, but I don’t know. I’m sure people do wanna see it again. I don’t know the answer to that question yet. We’ll see when Izzy comes back what he wants to do, where his head is. If you look at what he’s accomplished and his time here too, whatever he wanted to do, if he wanted to move up and fight Pereira again we’d probably do it. We’d probably give him a fight at that weight first, if he wins, and then give him a shot at Pereira. I don’t know, I wouldn’t say that we would never do it.”
