UFC welterweight Mike Perry scoffed at the boxing advice given by Twitter users after suggesting he wants to improve that part of his game.<\/p>\n
Perry lost a lopsided unanimous decision to Daniel Rodriguez at UFC Vegas 23 last week<\/a>. “Platinum” was jabbed up the entire fight and, although he did score some takedowns, took a ton of damage on the feet and wasn’t able to fire much back in return. With the loss, Perry has now dropped four of his last five fights. While Perry started off his UFC career five years ago knocking everyone out and becoming a fan favorite, he has really struggled as of late. At this point, you have to wonder what’s next for Perry. He likely will get another fight in the UFC due to being a fan favorite, but it would be a must-win fight if it happens.<\/p>\n Taking to his social media<\/a> this week, Perry mentioned something about working on his boxing, which led to a number of fans giving him advice, and Perry later firing back.<\/p>\n https:\/\/twitter.com\/PlatinumPerry\/status\/1382309252493160448<\/p>\n I was working my boxing. I was told to not go to the boxing gym because \u201cthey\u201d don\u2019t move like Mma fighters. People want me to grapple. I don\u2019t want to grapple. Just have to be good enough to defend and punch people in the face. Back on my boxing<\/em><\/p>\n All the technical advice on Twitter is comical. Move my head and move my feet all y\u2019all know how to do is move your fingers and lips lol smh<\/p>\n — Platinum Mike Perry (@PlatinumPerry) April 14, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
