Alex Pereira lost his UFC light heavyweight title to Magomed Ankalaev by unanimous decision at UFC 313, marking Pereira's first defeat in this weight class. This loss ended his five-fight unbeaten streak. Some fans believe Pereira was unfairly judged, prompting Tom Aspinall to criticize their views as "uneducated." He stated that Ankalaev performed better during the fight and dismissed claims that it was boring. Pereira is considering a rematch with Ankalaev later this year but has not ruled out a move to heavyweight. Despite the loss, some analysts believe Pereira could still compete effectively against Jon Jones in the future.
