Alex Pereira recently captured the light-heavyweight title in UFC 295. He stopped Jiri Prochazka in the second round with a series of elbows. After this magnificent win, he called out his arch-rival Israel Adesanya. But the former champion Jan Blachowicz wasn’t too happy about it. He took it to X to show his frustration.

Jan Blachowicz fought Alex Pereira at UFC 291. The closely contested bout ended with Pereira coming out as the victor. Pereira won on the judge’s scorecards by a close split decision. This didn’t please Blachowiz as he thought he had done enough to deserve the victory. Now, he congratulated Poaton on his recent win. However, he desired to fight Pereira again and mentioned that this time he would finish him. Here is what he said:

@AlexPereiraUFC I know you're a slimy one. Calling out Izzy. Great performance and all but STFU, we have unfinished business you and I. The judges won't give you hand outs next time. Pathetic.

Alex Pereira’s fight against Jan Blachowicz was his first UFC fight in the light-heavyweight division. Previously, he competed in the middleweight division and even managed to get hold of the title. Now, he became a two-division UFC champion as he won the light heavyweight title this weekend.

However, Jan Blachowicz has got a fight lined up. He is facing the number five ranked Aleksandar Rakic in his comeback fight from a catastrophic injury. They both faced each other before in 2022 which Blochowicz won via knockout. As such, he needs to get through Rakic to get a title shot.

In the recent tweet, this is what Jan Blachowicz said:

“I see I need to clarify. People see me that I’m a nice guy all the time. But sometimes I get pissed off, like everyone in life. I’m still super angry that they stole my W against Pereira. Now he calls out Adesanya again. Give it a rest already. We’ve been there 4 times!”

Alex Pereira hasn’t responded to Jan Blachowicz’s tweet yet. However, Blachowicz has a fight booked against Aleksandar Rakic next. So, Pereira would most likely defend his belt with someone else first.
