Teixeira: Pereira can fight at UFC heavyweight and light heavyweight

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Glover Teixeira said the promotion's middleweight champion Alex Pereira could move up to any higher category.

Glover Teixeira, quoted by MMA Junkie
We talk about it. He can fight anywhere. Look at this guy. He can fight in any division. He can fight in heavyweight, light heavyweight – he’s big. Eventually I think he’s going to want to do that because the weight cut is a big cut for him.

In November 2022, Pereira had a title fight against Israel Adesanya. Alex then won by TKO in the fifth round and won the UFC middleweight championship belt.

Prior to that, in July, 2022, he fought against Sean Strickland at UFC 276. In this fight, Alex won by TKO in the first round. He has seven wins and one loss under his belt.
