A couple of days ago, Danielle Nickerson, ex-wife of UFC star Mike Perry talked to MMA Junkie and accused Perry of domestic violence. TMZ obtained a 911 recording where Platinum’s mother can be seen telling dispatch that she’s “scared for my life". Danielle Nickerson also accused Mike Perry of assaulting her on multiple occasions, including an incident in February 2020 which left her with hematomas, bruises and a cracked rib. She said that after the assault, she ran to her neighbour’s house for help and called her mother-in-law. That’s when Sabra Young (Mike Perry’s mother) dialled 911.

“My son is out in the driveway, and he’s violent right now, and I’m scared for my life, and I don’t know what he’s going to do. His wife is inside my house, and I’m afraid he’s going to hurt her,” Young told 911 dispatch.
