Dana White weighs in on the recent allegations made against UFC welterweight Mike Perry

Adam D Martin - October 25, 2020

UFC president Dana White weighed in on the recent domestic violence allegations made against Mike Perry by his ex-wife Danielle Nickerson. Nickerson recently spoke in a lengthy interview with MMAjunkie.com about her allegedly violent relationship with Perry, who she said struck her on numerous occasions. The UFC welterweight star got ahead of things by releasing a statement denying any of the allegations. But apparently, Nickerson has photos of the bruises that she says Perry gave her, which has led to some fans believing Perry should be pulled from his upcoming fight against Robbie Lawler at UFC 255 while this all plays out in the courts.

Mike Perry denies Darren Till's "weak a**" offer for corner spot

Tom Taylor - October 12, 2020

It sounds like we can forget about seeing Darren Till cornering Mike Perry at UFC 255. Perry, one of the more popular fighters in the UFC welterweight division, is set to take on former UFC welterweight champ Robbie Lawler on the November 21 card. Ahead of the fight, he offered up a spot in his corner—alongside his partner Latory Gonzalez—to the highest bidder. Till was quick to respond to this plan from Perry, offering up $5,000 for a spot in his corner.

Mike Perry wants to take on Conor McGregor after Robbie Lawler: It's a fight "everyone will want to see"

Adam Martin - October 8, 2020

UFC welterweight Mike Perry says he wants to fight Conor McGregor after Robbie Lawler in a fight that “everyone will want to see.” Perry is set to take on Lawler at UFC 255 in November, a card that recently lost its main event when Cody Garbrandt pulled out of his flyweight title fight with Deiveson Figueiredo due to injury. Figueiredo remains on the card against Alex Perez, but reports have suggested the UFC is looking for a bigger-name main event. McGregor has been floated as a possibility to headline the card opposite Dustin Poirier. That means Perry and McGregor could very well both fight on the same card, which would be good timing for a future fight.
