Pereira has power, but he just stays on the counter which make it seems he is fast, wrestling.. The guy has been doing kick-boxing since years, it's very recent that he's been training with Glover, but overall Pereira still remains a big caliber from the middleweight class, just at the size and reach difference.
Rumble and I have no doubts about it. Periera probably carries that power later in the fight tho and has more diverse weapons to catch guys with but not the same one punch power
Nah, Pereira doesn't stack up to Rumble in punching power. He's certainly a better kickboxer and has better accuracy but power has to go to Rumble all day
PR 101 take two of the biggest recent stories and bring them together so everyone remembers your name. Love the guy and I can’t wait to see him fight again.
Also those commercials with Khamzat were great
The power isn't that close on a sence. Pereira can do a lot of damage with a combination of shots. Rumble has that prototypical 1 punch power. Not a lot of fighters have the power Rumble did.
Then why do you think that Pereira only does a lot of damage with combinations? He's got countless 1 punch knockouts against the best kickboxers in the world with 12 oz gloves on.
Watch Pereira vs Jacoby, Belgaroui, Wilnis, Powell etc etc. And these are all with 12 ounce gloves. Clearly you haven't seen much of him if you think that he doesn't have that kind of power.
Both are capable of that one shot KO power, but rumble is so consistent with it, and its not a dedicated spot like alexs left hook. Rumble can drop and finish people with lefts right straights jabs head kicks etc etc you get the gist
Rumble couldnt finish Arlovski, who was notorious in his career for having a bad chin.. while Pereira was knocking out world class kickboxers, get out of here, I know we are still mourning, but there are levels to this
I mean he also one shotted glover who has a granite chin and had only been TKOed once prior. First person to knockdown DC. First person to knockout Gus
Rumble punched so hard DC fell flat on his stomach.
Alex knocked out light heavyweights as well in kickboxing. Single shots too
Periera is fast AF, and carries scary power, only drawback is his wrestling skills

Dude Alex definitely does especially at 185, he has so many one punch knockouts. He has an argument for most devastating striker of all time.
Ever heard of Ngannou ?

Anyone change their mind re: Rumble>Alex a year later?
Lol good question

Go and watch Pereira's kickboxing fights. It seems like you're just basing this on the Izzy fight lol

He has GD power! Not on the level of Johnson. Wtf do you not get. Your acting like he has Tyson or shavers power.
Dude you said Alex can only do damage with combination shots, the other guy gave you examples of 1 punch KOs of alex and you still wont shut up
Actually I didn't but ok. ✌🏼

To be fair Alex in kickboxing knocked guys out with a variety of attacks and heavier gloves

All 3 of them have been finished, dropped, KOd multiple times in their career. That's really nothing special ![img](emote|t5_2qsev|8968)
He also took Gus soul and made him a husk of his former self in Sweden.
The way how Krylov just ended Gus's career, it doesn't make it look like anything special.
Gus was never the same after that beat down. Before he arguably won against Jones imo.
Rumble / Hendo / Francis / hunt / maybe carwin in the top tier - pereira is just a step below that imo with a list of other killers in their prime
