Pereira is currently at UFC 297 in Toronto and spoke with Full Send MMA about his breakup.
According to Pereira, he broke up with his girlfriend after recently discovering she was married.
“Well, it’s hard to talk about this because I already deleted this person from my life, I would also like to ask my fans to also delete her from your life, it was a person I believed in, I put her in my house together with my family after all I found out that she was married”
