Glover Teixeira admits sharing card with teammate Alex Pereira would be ‘a little bit too much’

Glover Teixeira would rather not share a card with his teammate Alex Pereira.

Teixeira (33-8 MMA, 16-6 UFC) was in Pereira’s corner for his title-winning finish against Israel Adesanya at UFC 281 in November and was elated to see him capture the middleweight title.

Pereira (7-1 MMA, 4-0 UFC) was going to return the favor by cornering Teixeira for his title fight rematch against Jiri Prochazka at UFC 282 before it was scrapped. But having cornered each other on numerous occasions, Teixeira says he prefers he and Pereira assist each other rather than compete on the same event.
