In the principle occasion of UFC Vegas 93 on Saturday, ranked middleweights threw down as Tatsuro Taira took on former title challenger Alex Perez.
Taira entered the struggle with an ideal 15-0 file and was ranked thirteenth at flyweight. The Japanese fighter was 5-0 within the UFC and had notable wins over C.J. Vergara and Carlos Hernandez, however this was a giant step-up in completion. Perez, in the meantime, was ranked fifth at flyweight and was coming off a KO win over Matheus Nicolau to return to the win column.
Finally, it was Taira who gained by second-round TKO as Perez acquired injured on a takedown from the Japanese fighter. Following UFC Vegas 93, here’s what I feel must be subsequent for each fighters concerned in the principle occasion.
