Brazil has produced many fighters some with great histories in the world of martial arts.

There are questions about any relationship between two popular Brazilian fighters Alex Pereira and Michel Pereira because of their last name.

This is in-depth look at the background of these folks, the history of others and the chance of these three being related or in some type of economic racket.

UFC Light Heavyweight Champion- Alex Pereira

Early Start and Kickboxing Triumph

The captivating story of Alex Pereira, born in Sao Paulo, Brazil on July 7, 1987, starts in one of the country's notorious "favelas."

Wanting to face other issues of his own, he soon took up kickboxing and soon became a multi-division kickboxing champion.

He is also widely known for his outstanding accomplishments in the prestigious Glory Kick boxing organization, flexing his power packed punches and destructive kicks.

The ultimate destination of Pereira though was to become a double champ in the Octagon, just eight fights into his UFC journey.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC)

The jump was risky, going from a sport as well known as kick boxing to the fledgling world of MMA, but one that paid off in spades for Pereira.

He stuck with it, worked hard, overcame adversity and is now on the UFC roster.

Already making a splash in the MMA universe by winning his first three bouts - including a victory over former middleweight champion Sean Strickland - and earning a date against fellow kickboxer Israel Adesanya for the title.

Professional accomplishments

Between his accomplishments in the UFC, including his thrilling rivalry with Michel Pereira, Pereira is now undeniably one of the promotion's biggest stars.

His incredible evolution from kickboxing champion to MMA phenom will go down in history, proving his commitment, versatility and natural ability beyond a shadow of a doubt. 

UFC Middleweight: Michel Pereira the Rising Star

His abilities and potential were known as he scored victories over multiple rivals.

Investigating The Possible Relationship

Background and Ethnicity

Alex Pereira and Michel Pereira are both from Brazil, and both have fought tooth and nail to try and carve out a niche for themselves in the combat sports landscape.

Alex Pereira is the current UFC Light Heavyweight Champion and Michel Pereira is an up and coming UFC Middleweight contender.

Both the fact of them having the same nationality and dedication to combat sports provide the only visible link in two of their completely separate paths.

Assessment of hereditary or professional relationships

Though both figures have demonstrated an abundance of ability and heart in their respective careers, this family connection remains unfounded.

But their Brazilian roots and contrasting journeys to the top of the world of mixed martial arts illustrate the influence of both inside the sport.

Despite whatever biological connection there may or may not be existing between the two of them, Silva and Belfort both come from Brazil and both have been fixtures in mixed martial arts for nearly two decades.

Those successes are the fruits of their unwavering dedication, their tireless work behind the black curtain of the sport, developing their craft in obscurity that speaks to fans and gives instruction to the hopeful entering the machine that is the UFC.

Fighting in the same country of Brazil, while born and raised by different paths, the Pereira's are both Brazilians to the core in this MMA lifestyle for real.

Despite the lack of confirmation of any direct familial or business relationship, their legacy in the UFC underscores the incredible success, not to mention the inspiration they serve to the global MMA community.
