UFC on ESPN+ 14 took place last night and whilst it was headlined by a title bout between Valentina Shevchenko and Liz Carmouche, it was Mike Perry and Vincente Luque who stole the show!
Late in the third round of what was an epic encouter between the pair of Welterweights, Mike Perry was caught by a knee which lead to one of the nose breaks we’ve ever witnessed.
Below is how the MMA community reacted to the bloody brawl.

You can tell Luque does his tape study with how he’s both targeting Perry’s legs and feinting/letting him walk into counters…

Perry is cut. Luque with the leg kick. Perry with the push kick. Perry with the flurry!!! All heavy shots, Luque had his hands up but those still hurt! #UFCUruguay
