"I told everyone I was not in a good condition last time" - Alex Pereira

The 38-year-old underlined that he was not in a good situation the last time around but was fit and raring to go on this occasion. After the comprehensive victory, the veteran stated, as quoted by Yahoo Sports:

"I told everyone I was not in a good condition last time. Nobody believed it. You saw it. [Saturday's result] didn't surprise me. I saw that in the first fight. I don't like to make excuses, but I've been saying I wasn't well that night — but tonight, I'm very well."

Meanwhile, the shocking result has also ended a 14-match unbeaten streak for Ankalev. Following the win, Pereira also called for the crowd in Las Vegas to observe a moment's silence in memory of former NFL lineman Arthur Jones, the older brother of UFC fighter Jon Jones. Arthur passed away aged 39 on Friday.
