The UFC Weigh ins ahead of the latest Fight Night had Michel Pereira performing a bunch of back flips

Brazilian MMA star Michel Pereira faces Khaos Williams in his next fight but he wasn’t letting any nerves show at the UFC weigh ins.

The 27-year-old is coming off a win over Zelim Imadaev earlier in 2020 and would have been keen on winning another fight.

The weigh ins are a little tense given that there is a fear that a fighter might have missed the weight cut. However, there were no such worries for Williams and Pereira. They both made weight and no one will get a cut.

Pereira is also one of the most entertaining UFC stars outside of the Octagon and he decided to do a few back flips while walking up to face off against his rival.

The Brazilian also shared the video on his Twitter account but Williams wasn’t all that fazed with all this.

A tough outing for Pereira

The Brazilian had posted another fun video in the past where he was training with Johnny Walker and that had a lot of people talking.

Nevertheless, this is going to be a tough fight for the 27-year-old. Williams is coming off the back of a great win over Abdul Razzak Alhassan and is on an eight-fight win streak.

The OxFighter, as Williams is called, also has some incredible knockout power too and has two KO wins in his last two fights.

Pereira, for his part, also has 10 KO wins in his career but also has six wins via submission. This should be an amazing fight at the latest event, and it will be interesting to see who comes out on top.
