Ailin Pérez Twerks in Opponent’s Face After Submitting Her

Ailin Pérez may not have secured a rear naked choke during her UFC bout on Saturday, but she definitely made a statement with a spirited twerk in her opponent’s face after winning by submission.

Competing in the bantamweight division at UFC Paris against Daria Zhelezniakova, Pérez wasted no time asserting her dominance, forcing DZ to tap out in the very first round.

After her victory, Pérez leaped to her feet and showcased her moves, swaying her hips right in front of her flustered opponent, still catching her breath. As Daria gradually rose from the mat, Ailin continued her celebratory dance, embodying the triumph of her win with each shake.

But the celebration didn’t stop there. After the referee confirmed her victory by raising her arm, Pérez playfully threw it back once more while her team pretended to rain down cash on her.

This lively twerking routine seems to be becoming Pérez’s trademark; she pulled off a similar celebratory dance back in June when she defeated Joselyne Edwards. Clearly, this is her go-to post-fight victory display.

While Ailin appears thrilled now, her journey to this fight wasn’t without its challenges. Earlier in the week, she faced difficulties when she missed weight during the weigh-in, which led to an emotional moment before an official guided her off the stage.

The fight unfolded, and Ailin capitalized on the victory by flaunting her moves, although one suspects her opponent might not be too appreciative of the twerk performance.
