Alex Perez reveals seizure led to mid-event fight cancelation at UFC San Antonio

Alex Perez has revealed the ‘medical issue’ that led to his fight against Manel Kape at UFC San Antonio getting cancelled.

This past Saturday, Perez released a statement revealing that he had a seizure as he was preparing for his fight against Kape, which was scheduled for the preliminary portion of UFC San Antonio.

“First and foremost, I want to thank everyone for all the support and concerns,” tweeted Perez. “I was doing my pre-fight warm-up and had a seizure. I immediately received medical attention. My hydration, electrolytes, etc were all more than adequate. This has nothing to do with weight cut.
