What happens if Alex Pereira wins? It sounds simple—but according to Chael Sonnen, it creates one of the most complicated situations the UFC has ever had to deal with. In this breakdown, Chael explores the ripple effects of a Pereira victory at heavyweight—from the possibility of becoming a rare multi-division champion, to the uncertainty surrounding who he would even fight next. With Tom Aspinall dealing with injury and contract questions, and Jon Jones still looming over the division, the path forward isn’t clear. Does Pereira get elevated? Does he wait? Or does the UFC build toward something even bigger? Chael also breaks down the reality of Pereira’s career stage, why a return to 205 seems unlikely, and how few fights he may actually have left. This isn’t just about one fight—it’s about what happens after. Because if Pereira wins… the UFC has a real problem on its hands.
