Sean Brady and Michel Pereira is the second fight added to UFC San Antonio this week
UFC on ESPN 43 is shaping up to be a strong card despite having just six fights announced thus far. The welterweight bout between Sean Brady and Michel Pereira is the fourth fight between ranked opponents that has been added to the card and the second that has been added this week.
Following Kai Kara-France's withdrawal from UFC 284, his scheduled opponent, Alex Perez, was removed from the card as well. Instead, the No.6-ranked flyweight will face No.9-ranked flyweight Manel Kape at UFC on ESPN 43.
Perez has lost his last two fights. However, he has a professional mixed martial arts record of 24-7, including a 6-3 record in the UFC. He faced Deiveson Figueiredo for the flyweight title at UFC 255 but lost via first-round submission.
Kape, who has a professional mixed martial arts record of 18-6, is trending in the opposite direction. The No.9-ranked flyweight is currently riding a three-fight win streak, which includes a victory over David Dvorak at UFC Fight Night 216, the last event of 2022.
