Video shows UFC welterweight Mike Perry hitting man, using racial slurs in Texas bar

UFC fighter Mike Perry was caught on video Tuesday night punching a man at a Texas bar and using racial slurs in the video that surfaced on social media.

Perry, a welterweight, appeared to strike an older man during a dispute that included at least one employee of the establishment asking Perry to leave. In the video, which was posted Wednesday night, Perry argued that another patron of the restaurant -- not the man he seemed to hit -- had touched him.

In the aftermath of the skirmish, Perry could be heard shouting several racial slurs.
