After joining Glory Kickboxing in 2019, the 31-year-old fought Chommanee Sor Taehiran in Miami. Pereira won the fight via unanimous decision and proved that she belonged at that level of competition. After registering a second consecutive win against Crystal Lawson at Glory 71: Chicago, Pereira got an opportunity to fight for the title.

The Brazilian then fought Tiffany van Soest in 2021 for the Glory Super Bantamweight Championship. The fight took place in Rotterdam, Netherlands which Pereira lost via unanimous decision. It was the last time Pereira fought in Glory Kickboxing and decided to try her hands at MMA like his brother.
