If there was a question to ask about the Fight Night event of the UFC in Shanghai, China on Saturday, it might just be “what the hell Michel Pereira and Kyle Dauus did on the UFC Shanghai Prelims?”
The Brazilian Pereira was once of the most consistent entertainers in the company, and although he has ties with Asia, it was mainly in his run with Road FC in South Korea. In the meantime, Kuukaus returned to the promotion after a solid stint under the Cage Fury FC banner.
Back-to-back losing to abuse Magomedov and Anthony Hernandez had broken an eight-fighter profit racing for “Demolidor” Pereira, although he was not in danger of losing his schedule.
Duukaus and Pereira touched gloves to start their middleweight Prelim; From there, Pereira circled out, a Cobra wants to strike. He did it quickly enough, exploded forward and tore a staircase to the body to close a combination. Moments later, however, it was Dawukaus who caused the damage and made Michel Pereira fall with a right hand! Pereira almost folded backwards, and while he tried to hold, it didn’t happen. Kuukaus was completely over him and fell more on the fallen Pereira. The breaking of elbows followed and the referee waved away things. Pereira was immediately up again and protested a bit, but it was hard to argue against the interruption.
Official result: Kyle Daukaus def. Michel Pereira by Knock -Out, Round 1, 0:43
