UFC on ESPN 51 headliner Vicente Luque has a knack for spectacular highlight finishes. Of all the fighters he’d beaten inside the octagon, though, only Mike Perry was able to make it to the judges.
Luque (21-9-1 MMA, 14-5 UFC), who returns to action in Saturday’s welterweight main event with former UFC champ Rafael dos Anjos (33-14 MMA, 21-12 UFC) at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, dished out a plethora of punishment on Perry over three rounds at UFC Fight Night 156, which took place Aug. 10, 2019 in Montevideo, Uruguay.
Both men landed heavy blows in the bout, but Luque inflicted the more significant damage as he rearranged Perry’s nose en route to a split decision win in the Fight of the Night.
