Brian Ortega Breaks Silence as Ex-Girlfriend Tracy Cortez Dates Champion Alex Pereira
Alex Pereira recently shocked MMA fans by sharing pictures with Tracy Cortez across social media platforms. In the pictures, both of them were seen kissing each other, clearly confirming they are currently dating and openly embracing their relationship.
Both were also seen enjoying the 2026 New Year together, celebrating privately and spending quality time alongside each other. They were also seen training together as Cortez worked on her striking with the light heavyweight champion.
After the post went viral on the internet, it led to several discussions, as Cortez previously dated UFC featherweight Brian Ortega. As expected, many fans slid into Ortega’s inbox and repeatedly asked him about Cortez and the viral dating pictures. Following that attention, ‘T-City’ released an official statement addressing the situation and responding calmly to all circulating narratives.
“I see you guys hitting me up trying to get a rise out of me (yall creative I give you that) Listen up I’m beyond happy and been happy. It ain’t my style to talk about others personal life and choices nor is it my business. My business is my family and my career 2026 and every year after will always be about them,” wrote Brian Ortega via Instagram.
Brian Ortega is currently struggling after suffering two back-to-back losses, affecting his momentum inside the competitive featherweight division. His most recent defeat came against former champion Aljamain Sterling, and Ortega is now focused on bouncing back strongly in 2026.
