UFC 255: ‘Figueiredo vs. Perez’ Live Results and Highlights

The Octagon remains in Las Vegas for tonight’s UFC 255 event, a twelve-bout fight card headlined by Deiveson Figueiredo vs. Alex Perez.

Figueiredo (19-1 MMA) captured the promotions vacant flyweight title this past July on Fight Island when he scored a first-round submission victory over Joseph Benavidez.

The Brazilian champion will enter tonight’s UFC 255 main event on four-fight win streak, which includes three stoppage victories.

Meanwhile, Alex Perez (24-5 MMA) will enter tonight’s event headliner on a three-fight win streak, his latest being a TKO victory over Jussier Formiga at UFC 250. The American has gone 11-1 over his past twelve fights overall, with his lone loss in that time coming to Joesph Benavidez by way of TKO.

A women’s flyweight title fight featuring reigning champion Valentina Shevchenko taking on top contender Jennifer Maia serves as the co-main event of UFC 255.

Shevchenko (19-3 MMA) has gone a perfect 5-0 since making the drop to the UFC’s flyweight division. During that stretch, ‘The Bullet’ captured the promotions vacant 125-pound strap by defeating Joanna Jędrzejczyk and has since gone on to defend the strap on three consecutive occasions.

Meanwhile, Jennifer Maia (18-6-1 MMA) is coming off a submission win over Joanne Calderwood in her most recent effort this past August. The Brazilian has gone 3-2 since joining the UFC ranks in July of 2018.

Also featured on tonight’s UFC 255 main card is a highly anticipated welterweight scrap between Mike Perry and Tim Means.

‘Platinum’ missed weight by 4.5 pounds for tonight’s fight card and is thus forced to forfeit 30% of his purse to ‘The Dirty Bird’.

Perry (14-6 MMA) was last seen in action this past June, where he scored a unanimous decision victory over Mickey Gall. That win snapped a two-fight losing skid for Perry, who had previously suffered setbacks to Geoff Neal and Vicente Luque respectively.

Meanwhile, Tim Means (30-12-1 MMA) got back in the win column in August, this after scoring a unanimous decision victory over Laureano Staropoli.
