Aline Silva Pereira Celso[1] (born October 6, 1990) is a Brazilian mixed martial artist and kickboxer. She is the inaugural and current Karate Combat Women's Flyweight Champion.[2] In mixed martial arts (MMA), she competed in the Flyweight division of Legacy Fighting Alliance (LFA), and in kickboxing she competed in Glory Kickboxing and fought for the Glory Super Bantamweight title in 2021.

Personal life

[edit]

Pereira has indigenous ancestry from the Pataxó tribe.[3] Pereira's older brother, Alex, is a former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion and a former UFC Middleweight Champion as well as a former two-division Glory kickboxing champion.[4] Pereira has a son. While pursuing her combat sports career in the United States, she has also worked Amazon delivery shifts to support herself and her family. In a 2025 interview with MMA Fighting, Pereira said the routine was tiring because she had to balance delivery work with training, but that she hoped to eventually live fully from fighting.[5]
