Michel Pereira produced a beautiful UFC debut by eliminating Danny Roberts
With an extensive record that was already under his belt by the time he made his UFC debut, Michel Pereira had built up a considerable reputation.
The Brazilian powerhouse was known for his unconventional and incredibly difficult to predict striking attack that immediately attracted attention.
Although there were many fans who were enthusiastic about seeing him competing in the Octagon, the big question was whether his flamboyant fighting style would work against UFC caliber opponents.
His debut took place in May 2019, where he was confronted with UFC Welterweight -veteran Danny Roberts during a Fight Night event in Rochester, New York.
It was not long before Pereira went looking for his wild techniques as he showed by running the side of the Octagon or trying a rolling thunder in the opening minute.
The entertainment took place with a little more unorthodox movement before a large jump knee landed, who quickly followed the Brazilian with a right right hand to finish his opponent within two minutes without needing.
