The two fighters met in a welterweight bout on Saturday night (June 27, 2020) at the UFC on ESPN 12 event from Las Vegas, Nevada at the UFC APEX.
Gall came out and was throwing some big strikes but in an unexpected move, Perry decided to take him down throughout the fight where he was dishing out some damage.
While on the feet, Gall had his moments and did land some big leather bombs. Perry landed a left hand that stunned Gall and then followed it up with a takedown to end the second round. The judges gave the win to Perry.
