Alex Pereira quickly went from an MMA novice in the UFC to a two-division UFC champion. In just seven fights in the promotion, Pereira bagged the middleweight title and the light-heavyweight title and has only lost once. With this quick rise came fame and a dedicated fan base. One of those fans recently gave him an expensive gift in the form of a Rolex.

In a now-viral video, Alex Pereira is approached by a man and two boys accompanying him. The youngest boy handed over a bag to Poatan. Pereira stood up, accepted the gift, and started opening it. Interestingly, Pereira had no watch on his wrist.

Pereira slowly uncovered the gift to expose the iconic green leather box. He opened it to reveal a beautiful Rolex Yacht-Master II Oyster 44. The watch has a price range typically starting from $18,000 to $22,000, varying based on condition and market demand. However, Pereira’s gift had something special. The Rolex Yacht-Master II Oyster 44mm in yellow gold has a higher price due to its precious metal construction. Prices for this model typically start from $35,000 and can go up depending on factors like condition and additional features.

The man with his two young sons too had some expensive pieces on their wrist. Pereira is preparing for an upcoming showdown against Jamahal Hill as an event headliner for UFC 300. This will be his first light-heavyweight title defense since he won the title at UFC 295 against Jiri Prochazka.
