UFC fighter Mike Perry attempts to dack Max Griffin ahead of Orlando bout

Weigh-ins give fighters a chance to intimidate their opponents before a bout, but UFC knockout specialist Mike Perry went about it in a rather unique way.

Perry is set to fight Max Griffin at UFC Orlando on Sunday (Australian time).

After a traditional stare down between the two, 'Platinum' attempted to dack Griffin, or as the American commentators called it, "the first pantsing in UFC weigh-in history". 

It's too early to tell whether the move got into the head of Griffin ahead of fight night, but he did not look one bit pleased with Perry in the moments after.

Thankfully Griffin's reflexes were on song and he was able to move away from Perry to avoid being embarrassed in front of the crowd.
