Pereira Isn't Letting Go Of The Gane Rematch, Even With Aspinall Back

Alex Pereira is publicly insisting a rematch with Ciryl Gane is going to happen, no matter what the heavyweight picture looks like with Tom Aspinall back in the mix. That's a bold thing to say given how their first meeting went. Word is, Gane stopped Pereira in controversial fashion at the White House event, winning an interim UFC heavyweight title. Pereira clearly isn't satisfied with how that night ended, and he's making his case for a do-over loudly enough that the promotion can't ignore it.
