Tragedy struck the mixed martial arts community as one of the brightest prospects to come from Bolivia has passed away at the young age of just eighteen years old. Ronny Perrogon was reportedly murdered by a gang while on his way home, according to “BOLIVIANonepuchKO” on MMA.TV.
After a pair of successful amateur bouts saw him walk out of the cage with his hands raised in victory, Perrogon made his professional debut at Combate Cotas MMA 1 where he knocked out Daniel Isaac Guerra just one minute into their fight. Perrogon was dominant against Guerra, taking him down to the mat with ease before knocking him out cold.
Perrogon showed a great deal of potential in the footage that is available on the young fighter. We wish Perrogon’s friends and family our condolences.
