Betrayal or Karma? Alex Pereira’s Ex-Girlfriend Celebrates His UFC 313 Title Loss!

A champion dethroned. A bitter ex. And a storm of controversy! Christine Merle, former partner of Alex Pereira, is under fire after her brutal remarks about his UFC 313 defeat. Fans are outraged, branding her a “generational hater”—just like Dmitry Bivol’s ex-wife. But is she really an enemy, or just speaking her mind?

Alex Pereira’s Title Reign Crumbles at UFC 313

The MMA world was left in shock as Alex “Poatan” Pereira lost his light heavyweight title in a high-stakes showdown against Magomed Ankalaev at UFC 313. Despite his lethal striking power, Pereira struggled against Ankalaev’s pressure, grappling, and forward momentum.

When the final bell rang, it was clear—Ankalaev had done enough. The judges unanimously ruled in his favor, marking a devastating loss for the Brazilian knockout artist.

But while Pereira’s fans mourned his title defeat, one voice stood out in the chaos—his ex-girlfriend, Christine Merle.

Christine Merle’s Chilling Prediction Before UFC 313

Even before Pereira stepped into the Octagon, his former partner, Christine Merle, had already predicted his downfall. In a controversial statement last week, Merle claimed it would be “good” for the division if Pereira lost his belt.

“If he (Ankalaev) strikes with Pereira, he will get knocked out,” she initially acknowledged. “But it would be good for the division to have a new champion. Because, obviously, Pereira can get the title back. So it would be good for the division.”

Her comments sent shockwaves through Pereira’s fanbase, who saw them as cold and unsupportive. Instead of standing by her ex-boyfriend, Merle appeared to celebrate his potential downfall.

And when Pereira actually lost? She didn’t hold back.

From “Chama” to “Karma”: Merle Mocks Pereira After His Defeat

Following Pereira’s crushing loss, Merle took to social media, delivering a brutal post-fight message.

Ditching Pereira’s signature phrase “Chama” (fire), she declared:

“Karma caught up with him.”

This single sentence set the MMA internet on fire.

Fans erupted in fury, accusing Merle of kicking Pereira while he was down. They branded her a “generational hater”, comparing her to Dmitry Bivol’s ex-wife, who also faced backlash for mocking her ex’s career.

Social Media Backlash – “She’s Just Bitter”

Merle’s comments sparked a wave of hate on social media. Fans didn’t hold back, with some going too far in their criticism.

“She has a really punchable face,” one fan wrote.

“She’s just another b**ch who can’t stand seeing her ex succeed,” another commented.

“Women just hate because they lost the best thing in their life,” an Instagram user added.

But the backlash wasn’t just aimed at Merle. Fans also revived old insults against Dmitry Bivol’s ex-wife, using the trending “Temu” insult, implying that she was a cheap version of something better.

This raises a bigger question: Are fans too quick to label ex-partners as villains, or are these women truly trying to bring their former lovers down?

A Toxic Breakup: The History of Pereira & Merle

To understand the bad blood between Pereira and Merle, we have to look at their tumultuous past.

During their relationship, Merle was a Fightology analyst, providing insights into the MMA world. But things turned ugly when Pereira accused her of hiding a secret marriage while they were still together.

In a scathing online attack, Pereira claimed:

“This rat won’t leave me alone. Forget me, damn. She does everything to gain followers. Followers through a negative way, for what? People who follow Merle, please stop following me.”

The accusations didn’t stop there. Pereira alleged that Merle was manipulating both him and his fans, using their public breakup to stay relevant.

Now, with her latest comments, it seems the war between them is far from over.

Pereira’s Brutal Clapback: “She Should Worry About Her Husband”

Pereira didn’t let Merle’s mockery go unanswered. After hearing about her “karma” remark, he fired back with a devastating response:

“I think she (Christine Merle) should stop mentioning my name ’cause her husband might get jealous. Chama.”

The not-so-subtle jab reminded fans of Merle’s alleged infidelity, turning the narrative against her once again.

But while Pereira is winning the war of words, he still has unfinished business inside the cage.

Dana White Confirms: Pereira-Ankalaev Rematch Likely

As Pereira deals with personal drama, the UFC is already planning his redemption arc.

According to UFC CEO Dana White, a rematch with Ankalaev is highly likely.

“Yeah, we probably have plans for Pereira already,” White confirmed.

The first fight was razor-close, and with both men hungry for gold, a rematch could be even more explosive than the first encounter.

The only question is—will Pereira be able to silence his critics and reclaim his title?
