And Aline wasn\u2019t the only member of her family involved. Her brother was also in attendance at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood.<\/p>\n

She had her brother, the former UFC light heavyweight and middleweight champion, in her corner.<\/p>\n
He was there for his sister\u2019s fifth pro bout, hoping to help her make the most of Netflix\u2019s debut into live MMA. Heading into Saturday night, she was 2-2 as a professional, having last picked up a win over Nejra Repp under the LFA banner.<\/p>\n

That victory had continued a pattern of alternating wins and losses. But now, following MVP MMA 1, she can finally call it back-to-back victories.<\/p>\n
Pereira came away with a split-decision win over Masson-Wong on Netflix after three closely contested rounds. And it wasn\u2019t just Aline who brought energy to the cage.<\/p>\n
Guiding her from cageside was \u2018Poatan\u2019, who was visibly more animated than fans are used to seeing him. The Netflix Sports account on X even posted footage showing just how invested he was throughout the fight.<\/p>\n

Pereira also boasts an undefeated record inside Karate Combat\u2019s \u2018Pit\u2019. Last July, she captured gold by beating Fani Peloumpi to become the first-ever women\u2019s flyweight champion for the promotion while extending her promotional record to 3-0.<\/p>\n
