Dumont Calls UFC Vegas 121 Loss 'Absurd' After Perez Wins Unanimous Decision

Norma Dumont lost to Ailin Perez via unanimous decision at UFC Vegas 121, a result the Brazilian fighter called 'one of the biggest absurdities' in MMA. The co-main event was criticized for being low-activity, with Perez winning on scores of 29-28 across all three judges. Dumont, ranked No. 2 at 135 pounds, expressed extreme frustration, claiming she dominated the second round and that Perez did nothing in the third. The rivalry, which included Dumont throwing condoms and cash at Perez during weigh-ins, remains unresolved, though Perez’s victory positions her for a potential title shot.
