Talented knockout artist Mike Perry put on a victorious performance over the weekend. Now UFC fighters are coming forward with their thoughts on the competitor’s big win.
Mike Perry was initially set to face off against Yancy Medeiros at UFC 226 on Saturday, July 7. However, Medeiros was pulled from the match up. Consequently, Paul Felder moved up in weight to accept the welterweight match up on short notice.
Perry put on a stunning performance over his opponent, brutalizing Felder with a series of right hooks and elbows that left Felder’s face bloody and damaged. In the end, Perry earned a split decision victory over his opponent.

Those grazing punches cuts the skin so easily. Felder is opened up and leaking badly. #UFC226

This fight is insane, I keep thinking about Perry’s crazy hyped up sound bite saying they’d both die in the cage and watching this I believe it #UFC226

Well fought. I’ve got Perry winning two. #UFC226

I think they got it right here. Thought @PlatinumPerry landed the harder shots in round 3. This was a much improved fighter tonight. #UFC226

Can we all please take a moment and recognise how badass Paul Felder is?
Came up a weight division on a week's notice against arguably one of the hardest hitters in the WW div and broke his arm mid fight and continued to throw it throughout the rest of the fight ???? #UFC226

Proud of @felderpaul stepping up like beast and fighting at 170 awesome fight brotha ??
