In a startling development, a TikTok star has come forward with allegations of SA against UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira. Meredith Brown, a TikTok user with over 54,000 followers, has posted a series of videos accusing Pereira of assaulting her during a recent trip to New Jersey.
According to Brown, the incident occurred at a hotel after she and a friend were invited to spend time with Pereira and one of his assistants. In a post on tiktok, Brown shared the emotional toll the alleged assault has taken on her mental health.
“Took me a while to find the courage to come out and say this, but I’ve been struggling so much with my mental health and I can barely get out of bed these days,” Brown wrote. “Its eating me alive keeping it inside and not talking about it because I’m scared but im hoping this will help me heal and not feel so alone.”
Brown acknowledged that some may not believe her, fearing that she is “chasing clout,” but she expressed a desire to feel “normal again” and hopes that sharing her story will help empower other women who have experienced similar traumas.
As of now, neither Pereira nor his representatives have responded to the allegations. Pereira was present at UFC 302, which took place in Newark, New Jersey, on June 1, and he most recently defeated Jiří Procházka at UFC 303 in a short-notice main event.
The picture of the two together was included with the videos she posted on tiktok however neither her friend that was allegedly present in the room nor Alex’ translator/friend weighed in on these accusations.
UFC fans are quick to point out that Meredith had a falling out with the friend who was with her at the event and the two no longer appear to follow each other on social media. In terms of timeline, they were definitely there at the UFC card, there’s photographic evidence of it.
It appears that no charges have been filed so this one is ont he court of public opinion for now. UFC fans don’t appear to be very sympathetic on social media.
