Alex Pereira insists he wasn’t the one fading at UFC Freedom 250. According to him, Ciryl Gane was the one about to break. “People say that I got tired. No, I did not,” Pereira said. He believes the illegal strikes are the only reason Gane survived. “You could see it in his eyes, and I got robbed of that moment.” Pereira added that Gane lying on the canvas wasn’t a celebration, just pure exhaustion.
