Mike Perry issues apology, promises to ‘be a better role model’ for unborn son

A little over a week after his impressive win over Mickey Gall, Mike Perry got himself in trouble. The 28-year-old welterweight was involved in an altercation with three people at a restaurant in Lubbock, Texas, leading to a misdemeanor charge for Class A assault.

Parts of the incident were caught on video, particularly when Perry was seen punching an old patron outside the restaurant.

The UFC immediately took action, stating Perry won’t be offered a fight until he seeks professional treatment. The official statement also claims that an apology was already made, but Perry recently issued another one, this time for the public to see.
