Mike Perry Set For Return In UFC Uruguay Co-Headliner
Mike Perry’s Octagon return is set. MMA Fighting has confirmed an initial report from MMA Uncensored, revealing that Perry will be taking on Vicente Luque in the co-headliner of UFC Uruguay on August 10.
Perry has dropped three of his last five fights. In his latest outing, Perry defeated Alex Oliveira via unanimous decision at UFC Florida in April. “Platinum” is looking to put together his first win streak under the UFC banner since 2017.
As for Luque, he is riding high at the moment on a five-fight win streak. Each of those victories has come by way of finish. Both Luque and Perry are proven finishers, so this has the potential to steal the show come fight night in Montevideo.
Currently, the event is headlined by a flyweight title bout between defending champion Valentina Shevchenko and Liz Carmouche. We’ll keep you updated as more fights are announced for the card.
