Alright, let’s talk about this Alex Pereira fella and his song, you know, the one he walks out to when he’s gonna fight. I ain’t no expert or nothin’, but I heard it’s called “Itsri” and it’s by some band called Sepultura. Sounds like a buncha noise to me, but hey, if it gets him fired up, then good for him.
What’s This “Itsri” All About Anyway?
Now, from what I gather, this “Itsri” ain’t just some random song. It’s got meanin’, ya see. They say it means “Roots” in some language, somethin’ like “Shaw-van-tay” or somethin’. These folks, the Shaw-van-tay people, they live in Brazil, way out there in the east, I think. It’s their word for “roots,” like where you come from, you know?
And this song, it ain’t just about roots, it’s about fightin’ too. Fightin’ to keep their way of life, their culture, from gettin’ all messed up by, you know, all that modern stuff and people comin’ in and changin’ things. Sounds like a tough battle, just like Alex’s fights.
Alex Pereira: That Fightin’ Fella
Speakn’ of Alex, this fella’s somethin’ else, I tell ya. He’s a fighter, a real tough one. Heard he’s the only one who’s a champ in both this kickboxin’ thing and this other fightin’ thing, MMA they call it. Two-time champ! That’s somethin’, ain’t it?
- He started trainin’ late, when he was already 21. Imagine that! Most folks start when they’re kids.
- He’s got some kinda warrior blood in him, from some tribe way back when. Patax, they call ’em.
- His nickname, “Po Atan,” means somethin’ like “stone hand.” Sounds like he hits hard, that’s for sure.
He uses that “Itsri” song every time he walks out to fight, even when he fought that Yair Rodriguez fella again. It’s like his war cry, I guess. Gets him pumped up and ready to go.
That Sepultura Band and Their Heavy Metal
Now, this Sepultura band, they’re somethin’ else too. They play this “heavy metal” music. Loud stuff, real loud. All guitars and drums and yellin’. Not my cup of tea, to be honest, but I guess it gets the blood pumpin’. And that “Itsri” song, it’s got this kinda… charm, they say. Like it fills the whole place up when Alex walks out. Maybe it’s got some magic in it, who knows?
Why This Song Matters
So, you might be askin’, why all the fuss about this song? Well, it ain’t just a song, see? It’s about where Alex comes from, his roots, his people. It’s about fightin’ for what you believe in, whether it’s in the ring or out in the world. It’s about respect for your ancestors and their ways. And it’s about gettin’ yourself ready to face whatever challenges come your way.
Gettin’ Ready to Rumble
Every time Alex hears that song, I bet he thinks about all that stuff. He thinks about his people, his family, his trainin’, everything that got him to where he is. And it gets him in the mood to fight, to win. It’s like a reminder of who he is and what he’s fightin’ for.
More Than Just a Song
So yeah, “Itsri” might just sound like a bunch of noise to some folks, but to Alex Pereira, it’s a whole lot more. It’s his connection to his past, his strength for the present, and his hope for the future. It’s his roots, his fight song, his story. And that’s somethin’ worth payin’ attention to, even if you ain’t a fight fan like me.
The Beat of the Drum
I reckon that when that song starts playin’, and the drums start beatin’, it ain’t just Alex who feels it. It’s like the whole stadium starts thumpin’ along with the beat. It’s a powerful thing, music is. It can stir you up, make you feel things you didn’t even know you could feel. And for Alex, that “Itsri” song, it’s the sound of his heart beatin’, ready for battle.
A Champion’s Anthem
In the end, it ain’t just about the punches and the kicks, is it? It’s about the spirit, the will to fight, the never givin’ up. And that song, that “Itsri,” that’s the sound of a champion’s spirit, a warrior’s heart. It’s Alex Pereira’s anthem, and I reckon he’ll keep on walkin’ out to it for a long time to come.
