SKOR.idConor McGregor mengatakan Alex Pereira adalah petarung pound for pound terbaik di UFC saat ini. Hal itu diungkapkannya setelah Poatan sukses mempertahankan sabuk gelar light heavyweight.

Pereira memenangi laga pertahanan titel ketiganya dengan mengalahkan sang penantang, Khalil Rountree Jr., technical knockout (TKO) di ronde keempat dalam main event UFC 307, akhir pekan lalu.

McGregor yang menyaksikan secara langsung tidak sungkan memuji Aleix Pereira, yang mampu menyapu bersih kemenangan dalam tiga pertarungannya sepanjang tahun ini.

“2024 adalah tahunnya Alex Pereira, tak ada yang bisa menyangkalnya. Jika kita mengacu pada itu, lupakan sabuk, lupakan semua itu,” ujar McGregor kepada The Schmo.

 Dia bertarung (tiga kali) tahun ini, (tiga kali) KO, dan yang paling mengesankan adalah yang terbaru. Saya akan menampatkan Alex Pereira sebagai Nomor 1,” imbuhnya.

Setelah sukses mengatasi Rountree, Conor McGregor berharap Poatan naik ke divisi heavyweight. Namun, Pereira mengatakan dirinya berencana bertahan di kategori 205 pon (kelas berat ringan).

Menurut McGregor, Pereira bakal membuat kelas berat menarik, dengan potensi duel melawan juara divisi tersebut, Jon Jones, yang disebut sebagai petarung pound for pound terbaik oleh petinggi UFC Dana White.

Jones dijadwalkan melakoni laga pertahanan gelar menghadapai Stipe Miocic dalam partai utama UFC 309 di Madison Square Garden, New York, 16 November mendatang. 

“Saya pikir dia juga (bisa) menghadirkan banyak masalah bagi Jon. Itu gaya (Pereira) yang berbahaya untuk Jon. Namun, itu cocok untuknya karena dia tidak terlalu besar,” McGregor menuturkan.

“Jon baru di divisi kelas berat. Jon, dia bertarung dengan bagus melawan Ciryl Gane, tetapi dia masih belum teruji di kelas berat. Dan saya yakin dia punya pemikiran bahwa petarung (kelas berat) benar-benar besar.”

“Alex adalah (lawan) yang tepat namun tetap berbahaya. Bahkan mungkin lebih berbahaya (dari petarung kelas berat). Saya pasti akan senang melihat pertarungan (Jones vs Pereira) itu terjadi.”
