Shocking moment MMA fighter ‘twerks’ in face of opponent after defeating her

We know that fighting is a crazy sport, but usually the culprit of the offence are those fists, and not a person’s backside.

However, when Ailin Perez won against her opponent, Darya Zheleznyakova, she celebrated in a way that took no prisoners and made sure she added to the humiliation of losing the title.

Perez of Argentina beat Zhelezniakova of Russia in the bantamweight women’s fight at The Accor Arena and her celebration was… interesting.

Perez, who was previously seen crying on the scales the day before, after missing her weight goal, ended up becoming the champion overnight.

As it turns out, she had nothing to worry about as her weight cut had next to no effect on her performance on Saturday September 28 at UFC Paris this weekend.

In fact, she decided she’d put on a show and give everyone a night to remember when she twerked in the face of her opponent.

After winning during the first round, giving Zheleznyakova a head-and-arm choke submission, she followed it up with a crude gesture.

Fans must have been shocked when Perez turned around, while her opponent was hunched over on the floor, and shook what her mama gave her in front of everyone to see.

Well, that’s one way to add salt to the wound of Zheleznyakova.

However, Zheleznyakova didn’t react to the show in front of her face and simply got up to go back to her corner and admit defeat.

But it was at that moment Zheleznyakova was getting up, Perez re-positioned her backside so that she could properly shake her bottom in full view of the loser.

Damn, that’s cold.

Perhaps emotion took over Perez, as the fight was nearly cancelled, with fans calling for it to not go-ahead fur to the weight-cutting issue.

When Perez took to the scales, it turned out that she was half a pound short of her goal, which was a 136 pound maximum weight limit in the bantamweight class.

At the time, she could be seen nervously walking to the scale, and when she was told that her weight was 136.5 pounds, she began to cry and started shaking.

UFC officials were quick to help her off the scales so that she could leave and disappear to the backroom while she gathered herself.

However, her coaches made the call to not let her continue to cut weight, and she ended up forfeiting 20 per cent of her fight purse because of it.

She’s also now ineligible for any performance of the night bonuses she could have received otherwise.

It’s a bit of a penalty, but it turns out that it was worth it in the end.

The fighter, who is also an OnlyFans model is ranked as the 15th best in the world, and fans have hopes that she’ll continue her trajectory.

As a 4-1 in UFC champion with four straight victories on her portfolio, a half a pound of weight was nothing to her in the end and she nailed her first round the day after.
