UFC -Master Alex Pereira Want to Meet World Champion in the box Oleksandr Usyk

When asked whether UFC’s commitment to a new Boxing League, supported by investments from Saudi Arabia, could pave the way for him to meet WBA (Super), WBC and WBO Tongue Weight Master Usyk, Pereira said he was “happy” to hear the news.

“Who knows – September, Saudi -Arabia?” he said.

Briton Aspinall has not fought since April when he made the first defense of his title against Curtis Blaydes.

“The plan is to fight Jon this summer,” said UFC President Dana White Jim RomeAt External show.

“My goal this year is to make that match. When, where and all that is being determined. Let’s see how this match (with ankalaev) plays out.

“The match that everyone will see right now is Jones and Aspinall, and there is no doubt that Pereira could fight against the winner.”
