At this point in his career, Anthony Perosh is a man who seems to know pretty much what he wants. That includes who and where he’d like to fight – and that he’ll hang up his gloves when he’s good and ready, and that time sure isn’t coming soon. Perosh (13-7 MMA, 3-4 UFC) on Saturday meets Vinny Magalhaes (10-6 MMA, 1-3 UFC) on the main card of UFC 163, which takes place at HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro in Magalhaes’ home country of Brazil. They’ll fight prior to the pay-per-view portion of the show after on FX. Although non-Brazilian UFC fighters have what amounts to a horrible record when fighting Brazilians in Brazil, it was Perosh who wanted to sign on the dotted line to go into enemy territory. “I’ve been to Brazil many times to compete in (Brazilian jiu-jitsu), but never in MMA,” Perosh told MMAjunkie.com Radio (www.mmajunkie.com/radio)
