The 27-year-old “Goyito” (17-6), fighting out of Monterrey, Mexico, hasn’t competed this year because of a knee injury. He went 7-2 during a four-year stint with the UFC, including wins in his last three fights. Most recently, Perez won by split decision over Felipe Arantes at UFC Fight Night 98 in November of 2016.
