Alex Pereira will once again stand in Sean Strickland’s corner, the Brazilian will fly to Australia to support the American in his rematch fight with Dricus Du Plessis at UFC 312.

Alex Pereira had been announcing a trip to Australia for quite some time. Even before the announcement of Poatan ‘s fight against Magomed Ankalaev at UFC 313, fans thought that the Brazilian was announcing his own fight at UFC 312. However, it turns out that the opposite was true, and today it was clarified what exactly was going on with Pereira’s departure to Sydney .

Alex Pereira will fulfill obligations to one of his sponsors, which was the initial reason for booking plane tickets to Australia. However, it quickly became clear that the UFC light heavyweight champion’s skills and positive attitude would be put to other uses.

Eric Nicksick trainer Sean Strickland has revealed that Alex Pereira will once again stand in the former middleweight division champion’s corner. The American team was informed that they could have a maximum of four people in Strickland’s corner, and three spots were filled.

Strickland and Nicksick therefore decided to take the opportunity to invite Pereira to once again support the American in the final phase of preparations for the gala, and during the event check in at the corner to give encouragement to the former rival with whom he is friends. It will also be a form of thanks for his preparations for UFC 307 when Strickland checked into Connecticut for a sparring camp to add weight to Pereira.

We remind you that in the past both Pereira and Du Plessis have prepared for the fight and exchanged words with each other, so it is possible that we will see some kind of face-off between the fighters after a possible win for the African.
