Anthony Perosh Scores New 4-Fight Contract With UFC

Less than 48 hours after his second round TKO loss to Mirko Crocop, Australian MMA fighter Anthony Perosh has secured himself a brand new 4-fight deal with the UFC. Perosh took the bout with Crocop in the final couple of days leading in to the UFC 110 Australia event, as a last second replacement for a sick Ben Rothwell. After coming in to UFC 110 riding a 1-1 record against regional challengers in the past six months, the world class Brazilian Jiujitsu blackbelt should now see action throughout 2010 and early 2011, in the UFC's Light Heavyweight division. Anthony had previously stated that his goal coming in to 2010 was to rack up enough wins to get back in the UFC again, ironically it was a loss that secured him not only entry back in to the UFC, but a 4 fight deal. On behalf of the Aussie MMA community, we would like to wish Anthony all the best for the rest of 2010 & his return to the UFC.
