Ailin Perez Transforms From Quivering on Scales to Triumphantly Twerking in Front of Her Adversary

Ailin Perez had an exciting weekend at UFC Paris; we’re not quite sure how to sum it up. When the Argentine mixed martial artist showed up for weigh-ins on Friday, it was evident that she had recently had a severe weight loss. This caused some anxiety. She was trembling obviously, and it took her a beat to lift her arms for a picture of her flexing.

Perez’s fight fared better than his weigh-in. With an arm triangle late in the opening round, Perez forced Zheleznyakova to tap out. Perez had delivered seven big strikes and two takedowns.

She then performed an expressive act.

Perez has made twerking his signature move, but it’s a whole different story when you do it to an opponent who has decided to move forward with the fight after you missed weight. When Perez chastised Tracy Cortez on X for cutting her hair to lose weight in July, at least one combatant took pleasure in watching Perez battle with her weight.

Given that Perez claimed Zheleznyakova had been disparaging her abilities prior to the bout, it’s possible that she was trying to make a statement with the victory: “It didn’t bother me, but it did tough my ovaries,”. “Fighters who talk badly about me end up paying for it in the cage. You can ask Joselyne Edwards. I know I didn’t knock her out, but I hit her quite badly in the striking. Darya is completely wrong, and I’m going to show it in the cage. The more she underestimates me the more dangerous I get.”

In any case, Perez’s victory marked her fourth straight and raised her record to 11-2 with seven victories overall.
