Steven Seagal teaches Alex Pereira deadly bullshido

Alex Pereira is the only fighter in combat sports history to become a two-division champion in both the UFC and Glory Kickboxing. Though, he can’t be considered an elite martial artist until he has learned deadly techniques from Steven Seagal, right?

Seagal rose to fame in the entertainment industry, making a name for himself as an actor in the 90s. However, that acting extends way beyond what he did on the big screen, managing to seep it’s way into his martial arts background.

While the 72-year-old is a martial arts veteran and 7th Dan Aikido black-belt, many consider his style ineffective in a real fight. The doubters haven’t stopped him from believing in himself, and strangely enough, the eccentric Aikido practitioner claimed that he is the reason for Lyoto Machida and Anderson Silva’s success in the octagon.

Now, Steven Seagal managed to get his hands on arguably the most beloved champion in the sport today Alex Pereira. Seagal taught the Brazilian several techniques, including his infamous minimal effort, maximum results style — which is either as deadly as he claims or Pereira was just playing along with the bullshido.

The pair spent some time together earlier this year, prior to three straight title defenses for ‘Poatan’, which Seagal will undoubtedly be taking credit for.

Steven Seagal’s ability has many conflicted. The general consensus agree that most of what the man says is false and ineffective as previously mentioned.

Though, whether it’s out of pure respect or the techniques do actually work, popular combat sports athletes often indulge in the demonstrations.

Regardless of whether it does or doesn’t work, training with Seagal didn’t have a negative impact on Alex Pereira’s most recent performances.

Last time out, the South American managed to retain his light heavyweight throne in a closely-contested affair with fellow knockout artist Khalil Rountree Jr.
