He lost that first MMA scrap, but eventually bounced back in 2016, winning two consecutive fights. Then, he took a hiatus from MMA and returned into the cage in November 2020 in Legacy Fighting Alliance, when he brutally knocked out <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/espnmma\/status\/1330003658881310721\">Thomas Powell<\/a> in the first round.<\/p>\n<p>In a <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/ufc\/alex-pereira-believes-israel-adesanya-wont-fight-him-again-provides-update-to-glory-and-mma-careers\/\">previous interview<\/a> with BJPenn.com&#8217;s Adam Martin, Alex Pereira said he was impressed by Adesanya but doesn\u2019t believe Adesanya would fight him again.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don\u2019t think Adesanya would be interested in that fight. I beat him twice and I\u2019m the only man to KO him. We never know what the future holds. It could happen someday,&#8221; Pereira hopes.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_355186\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-355186\" style=\"width: 696px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-355186\" src=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/Andreas-Michailidis.jpg\" alt=\"Andreas Michailidis\" width=\"696\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/Andreas-Michailidis.jpg 696w, https:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/Andreas-Michailidis-300x172.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-355186\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image via Titan Fighting Championship on Facebook<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>On the other hand, the Greek middleweight Andreas Michailidis is going to make his third UFC appearance. In his two previous fights, he scored an even record of one win against KB Bhullar, and one loss in the light heavyweight division against Modestas Bukauskas.<\/p>\n<p>One of Michialidis&#8217;s main goals is to put his home country on the map, as he previously stated in an <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/exclusive-interviews\/andreas-michailidis-eager-to-put-greece-on-the-mma-map\/\">interview<\/a> on BJPENN.com.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am the second Greece-born athlete, but I am the first guy to actually make it to the UFC from Greece,\u201d Michailidis specified. \u201cI didn\u2019t move somewhere else to make it to the UFC, like the United States. Over the years, I have traveled to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allstarsgym.se\/\">Allstars Training Center<\/a> in Sweden for my camps but day-to-day I live and train in Greece at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/EFL.Athens\">EFL MMA<\/a>. Now that Greece is on the map of the MMA world, I think in the near future you will see that there are many competitive fighters in Greece.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are a number of reasons that MMA is not currently thriving in Greece,\u201d the proud Hellenic continued. \u201cMost kids need to work for money and make the time commitment needed to train. MMA is also a relatively young sport in Greece and has only been around for the last ten years. The path that me and my team have made to the UFC wasn\u2019t available before. We\u2019ve had to travel a lot to find a way to get to the UFC and the time and cost of this is an insurmountable hurdle for most Greeks. Now that we\u2019ve made it, I think that this will encourage and open the doors to many more Greek fighters to join the UFC.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before the two middleweights eventually clash inside the Octagon, Alex Pereira already has a kickboxing fight scheduled on September 4, at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glorykickboxing.com\/events\/glory-78:c5167e73-af7e-4e7d-b19d-24a507992ca8\">Glory 78<\/a>.
