Okay, so I saw this trending topic online today about “* muslim” and I got curious. I mean, Alex Pereira, the UFC fighter, right? Is he Muslim? I had no idea, so I decided to dig in.
First, I hit up the usual spots like Google and YouTube. Typed in “Alex Pereira Muslim” and a bunch of stuff popped up. Lots of articles, some videos, mostly just speculation it seemed. No straight answers right away. I found some message boards and social media comments but nothing concrete, just a lot of people asking the same question.
Then I started to really look into it. I mean I started to scroll through a bunch of posts on his Instagram, looking for any hints. Pictures of him at mosques, maybe some religious quotes, anything like that. Nothing really stood out. It was mostly just training videos and fight stuff, which makes sense, he’s a fighter after all.
After that, I went through some interviews he’s done. Watched a few videos of him speaking in Portuguese, hoping for any mention of his faith. I’m not fluent, but I know a few words. I’ve tried watching some UFC fight videos too. Nothing clear came up in those either, to be honest.
- Tried to find his social media
- Read some articles
- Watched some videos
- Even looked for interviews
My conclusion
So, what did I find out about if Alex Pereira is Muslim? Not a whole lot, unfortunately. There’s just not a lot of info about his religious beliefs online. It’s all just rumors and guesses, it seems. Maybe he’s Muslim, maybe he’s not. Without him saying anything directly, we just can’t know for sure. It is his privacy after all. If he decides to share that part of his life, cool. If not, that’s cool too.
Anyway, that’s my little internet adventure for today. It was interesting, even if I didn’t find the answer I was looking for.
