Pereira is a striker who hunts the finish — of his 13 wins, 11 come by knockout, 0 by submission, and 2 by decision. He's a genuine finisher: 85% of those wins came inside the distance. 2 of his 4 defeats have come by KO/TKO, suggesting real vulnerability against powerful strikers. He's at his best when the fight stays standing — the live question in any matchup is whether an opponent can drag him into grappling he'd rather avoid.
