Vicente Luque got the job done, but did not come away unharmed in his three-round bloody battle against Mike Perry at UFC Uruguay. After almost three entire rounds of pure striking where the ‘Silent Assassin’ badly broke his opponent’s nose, the Brazilian almost scored a guillotine choke submission win, but had to settle for a split decision victory in the end. On Twitter, pro fighters praised both athletes.

Luque by left hook? #UFCMontevideo

Perry threw more, but I feel like only a couple landed. Lurie seemed to be landing pretty clean when he threw. I would give the RD to Luque

I imagine Mike Perry grew up in a trailer park located in outer space. He is my favorite. #UFCUraguay

Easily worst nose break I’ve seen in a fight ever. Perry and Luque are tough as hell. Nuff said. #UFCUruguay
