Jackson-Wink Fighter Vows To Give Donald Cerrone A ‘Beautiful Death’

Mike Perry vowes ‘Beautiful Death’ for Donald Cerrone.

Jackson-Wink fighter Mike Perry has vowed to give Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone a ‘Spartan worthy beautiful death’ at UFC Denver.

Cerrone made headlines earlier this week on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast. He publicly lambasted his former team Jackson-Wink MMA. Claiming that the once fabled gym had since lost its luster. Coach Winkeljohn wasted little time firing back at Cerrone. Claiming he had never seen anyone as narcissistic as Cerrone in his life. Former longtime teammate Diego Sanchez even weighed in on the matter.

Now “Platinum” Perry has responded.

Perry, who is a known jokester, tweeted Youtube celebrity Logan Paul. The tweet was meant to be a dig at Cerrone for claiming that any old “bum” off the street can come train at Jackson-Wink.

Perry then turned his attention directly toward Cerrone. Saying that “Cowboy” has no idea what money problems are. And adding that he will, in fact, give Cerrone a “Spartan beautiful death.”

For good measure, Perry shot a quick video for Cerrone. Perry can be heard yelling “I’m coming for you! (growl) I’m coming for you in front of the whole world, motherf**ker! You earned it. You earned it.”

Paul Felder Reveals When He’ll Change Weight Class

Paul Felder would be a great addition to welterweight.

The post Paul Felder Reveals When He’ll Change Weight Class appeared first on LowKickMMA.com.

Paul Felder will consider a jump up to welterweight.

The longtime lightweight veteran was previously on a three-fight win streak in the division. That was ended against Mike Perry at UFC 226 in July. However, that fight was contested at welterweight.

Felder told MMA Fighting‘s Luke Thomas on The MMA Hour his plans in regards to weight classes. He wants to attempt one more really strong lightweight run before jumping up to 170 pounds:

“I was on a three-fight winning streak and now I took an loss, but I only took a loss at 170,” Felder said.

“So I still haven’t lost over a year at 155 so I’m hoping that, I gotta talk to coaches and my manager and things like that.

“But I was really leaning toward ’70 leading up to that fight and now I want to try to make one more really strong run at getting into the top 5 and I’d love to fight for that belt some day.”

Initially Felder was to fight James Vick at UFC 226. Instead, Vick was pulled to main event this past weekend’s UFC Lincoln card opposite Justin Gaethje. Felder jumped up to welterweight to fight Mike Perry, who’s opponent also pulled.

During his fight with Perry, Felder broke his hand early on. It hindered his performance and may have played a role in the result. With a full fight camp at welterweight, and full health, Felder thinks he can really compete in the division:

“The unfortunate thing for me is, if that had gone well, I think ’70 is very much a possibility,” Felder said.

“I don’t think size or strength is really why things went wrong – I think it was just a tough fight, circumstances didn’t go my way. I got hurt, but I really feel I could compete at that weight class, but I do, also, a big part of me thinks I could really still make a run at the top at 155.”

Paul Felder is as tough as they come.

“The Irish Dragon” had a wild road to the UFC 226 pay-per-view (PPV) last weekend (Sat. July 7, 2018). Initially, Felder was scheduled to fight James Vick in Las Vegas. Instead, Vick was shuffled into the main event of UFC Lincoln against Justin Gaethje after Al Iaquinta dropped out of the slot.

It just so happened that Mike Perry lost his initial UFC 226 opponent, Yancy Medeiros, as well. Naturally, the UFC matched Felder and Perry up for a welterweight contest.

Perry and Felder put on one of the more entertaining fights of the night, but when it was all said and done “Platinum” emerged victorious via split decision. Felder got pretty nicked up after 15 minutes in the cage with Perry.

He suffered a nasty cut in the opening moments of the fight that was bleeding profusely all night. Perry later required stitches to close up the wound. Felder also broke his arm in the middle of the fight but still managed to go the distance nonetheless. He even continued to throw some big shots with the arm despite the break.

Felder’s management recently shared on their Instagram a photo of how their client broke his arm, paired with an x-ray showcasing the break as well. Check it out:
