How Aline Pereira beat Jade Masson-Wong<\/h2>\n

Aline Pereira made it two MMA wins in a row against Jade Masson-Wong (3-3) on Saturday night. <\/p>\n

The Brazilian was floored early when her opponent caught a body kick attempt. Masson-Wong took top position and maintained it for a few minutes, but lost it when the referee deemed that she wasn\u2019t being active enough.<\/p>\n

Pereira started to land her elite-level strikes at the end of round one and continued to look slick on her feet throughout the second round.<\/p>\n

Masson-Wong was badly hurt late in the second round, but she responded by securing a takedown, hopping on Pereira\u2019s back, and threatening a choke.<\/p>\n

Pereira landed cleaner and more strikes in round three, but Masson-Wong made her mark on the five-minute frame with intermittent blitz attacks.<\/p>\n

It was a fight that could\u2019ve gone either way, so it was no surprise when the judges returned a split decision verdict. <\/p>\n

Ultimately, Pereira did enough to get two 29-28 scorecards and the third win of her MMA run. <\/p>\n

Alex Pereira hopped in the cage to give his sister a hug and a kiss after the verdict was made official. <\/p>\n

When is Alex Pereira\u2019s next fight?<\/h2>\n

Alex Pereira won\u2019t celebrate his sister\u2019s win for long, as he\u2019s got his own fight to prepare for. <\/p>\n

The UFC superstar will attempt to become the first three-weight champion in company history next month. <\/p>\n

Pereira will look to add the interim heavyweight title to his collection in the UFC White House<\/a> co-main event on June 14. <\/p>\n

The former light heavyweight and middleweight champion will face Ciryl Gane<\/a> in a highly anticipated matchup. <\/p>\n

Tom Aspinall expects to face the winner<\/a> of Pereira vs. Gane in a heavyweight unification clash later this year. <\/p>\n
