Jake Ellenberger vs. Mike Perry bout added to UFC Nashville event

The UFC’s next event in Nashville has many matchups that seem equipped to be Fight of the Night material, and the promotion added another potential one today. This one comes in the welterweight division, with veteran Jake Ellenberger taking on Mike Perry.

Ellenberger (31-12, 10-8 UFC) is coming off a weird loss to Jorge Masvidal where his foot got stuck in the cage and Masvidal was able to finish him off with strikes in the first round. He is just 2-6 in his last eight fights, but the fight before Masvidal was a huge TKO win over Matt Brown.
