Brandon Jenkins wants credit for Mike Perry finish, eager for rematch
Mike Perry's shoulder didn't pop out on its own. Brandon Jenkins wants everyone to know he caused the finishing moment at Duel Arena 1.
Brandon Jenkins, a seasoned UFC fighter, pulled off an unexpected victory against Mike Perry and is eager to face him again. Jenkins, who stepped in for injured Dillon Danis, won the main event at Duel Arena 1 held in Orlando, Florida. The fight ended in the first round when Perry dislocated his shoulder. Jenkins insists he was the one responsible for the dislocation, emphasizing that he was striking Perry with right hands and spinning elbows.
He successfully left-elbowed Perry, causing his shoulder to pop out. Jenkins claims he covered up from the uppercuts and set Perry's shoulder out of place. Despite the inspiring performance, Jenkins has faced negative comments from MMA fans on social media, which he finds perplexing. He remains focused on seeking a rematch with Perry, preferably at welterweight under the MVP MMA banner.
However, he acknowledges the healing time required for Perry's shoulder, which could range from six months to a year. Jenkins hopes to face Nate Diaz next, as he claims he had beaten up Diaz's best friend, Chris Avila, and was surprised by Diaz's lack of desire to continue the rivalry.
