Aline Pereira, Alex Pereira’s sister, just fought her second fight in ‘Karate Combat’ and won it via an impressive knockout. After impressing on her debut, the athlete now went one-on-one against Amanda Torres with only one goal in mind: to succeed in the sport so that she can leave her normal job as a delivery driver and focus on her fighting career.
Now, she is a step closer with this massive left hook that knocked her opponent out. In an interview with MMA Fighting, Pereira said that when she arrived in the United States, she began to blend her routine as an athlete with that of an Amazon delivery driver. In fact, the sister of the UFC light heavyweight champion confessed that working for the multinational is stressful.
In any case, Aline Pereira does not hide her desire to spend her entire life as a fighter. Exactly for this reason, Pereira’s sister took advantage of the new opportunity to demonstrate her strength in Karate Combat. She said, “I do deliveries for Amazon, and we do what we have to do. This routine is very tiresome because we still have to accommodate the training hours and the job, but it all works out in the end. It’s not easy. We do deliveries for four and a half hours. But it’s great to be here. The United States is very good for me and my son, too.”
