Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) returns to the FOX Sports 1 TONIGHT (Sat., Nov. 10, 2018) with the UFC Fight Night 139 mixed martial arts (MMA) event inside Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado. In the welterweight co-main event, 170-pound “Cowboy” Donald Cerrone tries to avenge his Jackson-Wink dissolution by trading leather with “Platinum” interloper Mike Perry.
Cerrone (33-11, 1 NC) is coming off a hard-fought decision loss to rising English contender Leon Edwards last June. The grizzled UFC veteran has only managed to produce a 1-4 clip in his last five fights, but still seems to have a lot left in the tank. While the former UFC lightweight title challenger teased a return to 155 pounds, “Cowboy” will hang his hat at welterweight for the time being.
Perry (12-3) is coming off a dominant victory over lightweight Paul Felder back at UFC 226. The knockout artist displayed a new sense of patience and shot selection in that fight, which is something he lacked through his first handful of UFC appearances. “Platinum” remains an extremely dangerous out for anyone in the welterweight division so Cerrone needs to pay close attention.
