\nPereira<\/a> and the
\nUltimate Fighting Championship<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\ntwo-division champion revealed that he recently inked a new
\neight-fight deal with the Las Vegas-based promotion.<\/p>\n
\nheavyweight, where he will face Ciryl Gane<\/a>
\nfor the interim title in the
\nUFC White House<\/a> co-main event on June 14. The decision to give
\nup the light heavyweight championship wasn\u2019t too difficult once
\nPereira received a new contract offer. While \u201cPoatan\u201d did not share
\nfinancial terms, it was clear he was quite pleased with the
\nresults.<\/p>\nEasy Choice<\/h2>\n
\n[heavyweight.] Of course, I had to let go of the belt, but they
\ngave me a new contract and I\u2019m really, really happy with my new
\ncontract,\u201d Pereira said through a translator. “I actually want to
\nthank Mick [Maynard], Hunter [Campbell] and Dana White for it. So
\nthis new deal that they gave to me? I don’t care about letting go
\nof the belt or anything like that.<\/p>\n
\nlast contract was so good that I let it up to them to do whatever
\nthey want. It didn\u2019t matter.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nemerged as one of the UFC\u2019s top stars since beginning his
\npromotional tenure in 2021. After a short reign as middleweight
\nking, the Brazilian moved up to 205 pounds and claimed the belt
\nthere with a stoppage of Jiri
\nProchazka<\/a> at UFC 295. He defended the title three times before
\nfalling to Magomed
\nAnkalaev<\/a> at UFC 313. He regained the crown with a first-round
\ntechnical knockout of Ankalaev in his most recent outing at
\nUFC
\n320<\/a> this past October. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
