Possible Opponents For Pereira's Heavyweight Return

Pereira vacated the light heavyweight title earlier this year, leaving that division in flux while Carlos Ulberg remains sidelined. The Brazilian's move up to heavyweight eliminates Josh Hokit and Ciryl Gane as potential opponents, as those two will meet for the undisputed heavyweight title at UFC 334 after Tom Aspinall vacated the belt.

Alexander Volkov has emerged as one possibility after recent wins over Waldo Cortes-Acosta and Jailton Almeida. Sergei Pavlovich, who has been inactive in recent months, also sits in the mix.
