Alex Pereira Takes Dig at Ciryl Gane Ahead of Potential UFC Heavyweight Title Upgrade

It has been more than three months since Alex Pereira's bid to become a UFC champion in a third weight class came to a brutal end at UFC Freedom 250. Ciryl Gane delivered a statement-making performance to score a second-round knockout in the historic White House co-main event and become the interim heavyweight champion.

Now, with Tom Aspinall vacating the heavyweight title, Gane is expected to be upgraded to undisputed champion soon. While Pereira recently appeared to have moved on from his bitter loss in June , the Brazilian doesn't seem ready to welcome Gane as the new champion just yet.

On Wednesday, Pereira took to social media to mock Gane's potential coronation as the new undisputed heavyweight champion. "Poatan" shared a graphic from MMA News HQ that highlighted some of the Frenchman's more controversial moments and setbacks inside the Octagon.
