Stoppage win after weight miss
Perez defeated Darya Zheleznyakova via submission (arm-triangle choke) at 3:52 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Paris.
ANALYSIS
It was another strong performance by Perez, with this one largely muted by the fact she missed weight by half a pound on Friday morning. She simply muscled Zheleznyakova to the mat and easily choked her out. Five fights into her UFC career, Perez has proven to be deceptively strong for her size. She's an underrated wrestler and has proven to be opportunistic. While that's all well and good, she'll be 30 years of age next week. Her four victories with the company have come over Zheleznyakova, Joselyne Edwards, Lucie Pudilova, and Ashlee Evans-Smith. In short, we still know nothing about Perez's long-term potential. She needs a significant step up in competition her next time out.

Misses weight, fight at catchweight

ANALYSIS
The Perez-Zheleznyakova fight is still on, with the former being fined 20 percent of her purse. Perez missed the bantamweight limit by half a pound, even with the benefit of a non-title bout gifting her an extra pound to work with.

ANALYSIS
Perez only absorbed nine significant strikes to the head in Saturday's decision victory, but she'll nonetheless need clearance from an oral surgeon if she intends to compete again prior to late-2024.
