![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The “Iceman” look lasted about as long as it took for Pereira to share the imposing mirror selfie - though he didn’t close the door on bringing it back for a future fight night - but the reaction to it is another sign that the UFC may have a budding star on its hands. ![]() “I made a photo I was going to show just for but was like, Let me just post this.” “I shave my own head, so I did one side and was like, ‘let me see how I look with a mohawk,’ and then I did the goatee,” Pereira, through an interpreter, recently told The Post via Zoom, describing how he came to resemble the iconic look of one of the UFC’s most famous faces during its rise toward mainstream awareness close to two decades ago. Pereira (7-1, six finishes), nine days out from this Saturday’s first title defense in the UFC 287 main event, shared an off-the-cuff homage to UFC Hall of Famer Chuck Liddell while messing around with a razor that garnered well over 300,000 likes on Instagram. If Pereira’s latest social media drop is any indication, he’s endearing himself quite well. The MMA world is still in the get-to-know-you phase of its relationship with UFC middleweight champion Alex Pereira. ‘Steamrolla’ dominates another favored foe in UFC 288 victory UFC fighter arrested for DUI in Hollywood after truck flips, hits parked carsĪljamain Sterling earns tight split decision over Henry Cejudo to retain UFC title UFC broadcaster takes bizarre shot at Russell Westbrook during PPV ![]()
