Mike Perry and Al Iaquinta were involved in a great battle on February 23. Perry managed to emerge as the winner of the jiu-jitsu contest. Well, this brings up the question, who would be the aggressor if Mike Perry and Al Iaquinta lock their horns in MMA? Both of them are currently with UFC and Dana White might sign them for a fight in the near future. That said, Mike Perry is currently competing in the welterweight division while Al Iaquinta is an emerging star in the lightweight unit. If the duo ever decide to fight each other inside the octagon, one of them needs to compromise their weight class.
