Mike Perry kicked off the main card of UFC Fight Night 108 by knocking out Jake Ellenberg and Al I﷽aquinta competed in the co-main event, defeating Diego Sanchez by knockout.
Following the event, the victorious Iaquinta took some shots at his employe🌠r, even delivering a solid “F bomb” to them in the proꩲcess.
Upon hearing the criticisms from the New York Native, the welteꦺrweight star gave some advice to Iaquinta via Twitter:
Calm down Lil guy
— Platinum Mike Perry (@PlatinumPerry)
💫Perry recently appeared on ꦦto elaborate on his reasoning behind the comment.
“I was trying to offer this man some advice,” Perry said. “The way I put it may have seemed disrespectful, but ... you think you’re going to get a bonus when you just run around disrespecting somebody who’s paying your bills, things like that? You work hard for this, then conduct yourself properly. He said ‘f*ck you’ to the people who are setting this up for you. If you have a sour attitude towards these people who are giving you the opportunity people dream of, you need to fix your priorities.”
UFC Fight Night 10🌜8 was thus far, the first and only🍸 time that the two fighters competed on the same card.
The welterweight contender also feels that he should be defending the company tha🐭t employs him, not blasting it like Iaquin🉐ta has done.
“I’m watching out for the UFC,” Perry said. “He can’t just be bad-mouthing people who are doing the same thing for me. I got their back too because they got mine.”
A “Performance Of The Night” bonus was awarded to Perry💯 that night, while Iaquinta got no bonus for his kno♛ckout win.
