Alex Pereira and Tracy Cortez have recently decided to end their relationship, just days after going public and capturing the attention of the MMA community. The couple’s relationship came to light at the beginning of 2026 when they shared their New Year celebrations on social media, which included photos and videos of them sharing affectionate moments, including a kiss.
However, Pereira took to Instagram stories to announce the separation, expressing gratitude to fans for their support and explaining that despite sharing great moments with Tracy, they both felt it was best to part ways. He wished her the best in her future endeavors.
Tracy Cortez, who was previously in a high-profile relationship with Brian Ortega that ended in 2023, continues to focus on her career in the flyweight division after a recent loss. Meanwhile, Pereira, who reclaimed the UFC light heavyweight title in October 2025, is currently recovering from a foot injury.
In other news, Jon Jones has cast doubt on the possibility of a super fight with Alex Pereira. Jones, who had hoped to compete on the proposed White House card in June, suggested that the UFC may not be interested in making the fight happen. Despite Pereira’s interest in the matchup, Jones hinted that Dana White might not approve of it.
Jones had previously backed out of a potential title unification fight against Tom Aspinall, leading to tensions between him and Dana White. The UFC President has indicated a preference for focusing on other stars like Conor McGregor for upcoming events.
Overall, the MMA community will have to wait and see how the situation unfolds between Pereira, Cortez, and Jones in the coming months. Stay tuned for more updates on One Championship Rankings and other MMA news at Sportskeeda.
