A potential welterweight slugfest between Mike Perry
and Daniel
Rodriguez is in the works for UFC Fight Night on April 10.
The matchup was initially reported by
Fighter Path. UFC Fight Night is headlined by a middleweight
showdown between Darren Till
and Marvin
Vettori.
Perry split a pair of bouts in 2020, outpointing Mickey Gall
at UFC on ESPN 12 before dropping a unanimous verdict against
Tim
Means at UFC 256. “Platinum” is 7-7 over the course of his
promotional tenure and owns other notable wins against the likes of
Paul
Felder, Alex
Oliveira and Jake
Ellenberger.
Rodriguez kicked off his UFC career with wins over Means, Gabriel
Green and Dwight
Grant before losing a unanimous decision to Nicolas
Dalby in his fourth Octagon appearance of 2020. The 34-year-old
owns a 13-2 career mark, with 11 of his victories coming inside the
distance.
