Michel Pereira isn’t just flash. He’s substance, because the wins keep rolling in.
At UFC 270, Pereira (27-11 MMA, 5-2 UFC) defeated promotional newcomer Andre Fialho (14-4 MMA, 0-1 UFC) via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28).
From the opening bell, Pereira utilized a snapping front kick to the midsection of Fialho, who either was not bothered by them or displayed a great poker face. Fialho tried to press forward, but the body shots and explosive outbursts from Pereira kept him at bay. Fialho succeeded late in Round 1 when he busted Pereira’s nose open and added additional damage when the fight hit the canvas.
