The reigning champion at 205 lbs, Alex Pereira, is impossible to overlook. A few weeks ago, he stepped in on short notice to replace the main event of UFC 303. Pereira’s popularity has surged in recent months, reaching new heights after his dominating victory over Jiri Prochazka last week. The knockout artist even has two of the top five biggest live gates under his name.

With each of his victories, his fan base continues to grow rapidly. His “Chama” chant is often heard whenever he enters the arena or during impromptu moments outside the cage. However, after successfully defending his title at UFC 303, ‘Poatan’ was quite active on his social media accounts. He was captured in a video by some of his fans, who were baffled after meeting him out of nowhere.

The video soon found its way to social media, where it shows Alex Pereira swimming with his children. As they swam, Alex Pereira bumped into a bunch of fans and asked them for Zyn, an addictive nicotine product that is an alternative to smoking and helps reduce cravings. The boys felt delighted to see Pereira out of nowhere and started with the chants of “Chama.”

Not enough attention is given to his interactions with fellow UFC fighters. MMA fans also appreciate his social media content with Nina Marie Daniele. His rapidly growing fan base reflects the strong brand he has built in a short period of time.
