A mixed martial arts fighter at a gym in Chelsea was stabbed three times in the back Saturday by an ex-member who was kicked out last year, cops said.
Caleb Perry, 23, entered into Radical Mixed Martial Arts — a combat fighting and self-defense gym — on West 29th Street at Seventh Avenue around 11 a.m. and went looking for management, according to police.

3The stabbing at the academy happened around 11 a.m. on Saturday.
He then got into a fight with the 24-year-old victim before stabbing him in the back repeatedly with a knife, police said.
Apparently Perry had his gym membership revoked sometime last year for an undisclosed reason, a police source told The Post. Cops arrested him at the scene.
The victim was taken to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition.
Perry was charged with attempted murder, assault and burglary, cops said. He was awaiting arraignment Saturday.
That’s radical.
He waited a year?
I could be in Brooklyn by then
That would’ve never happened to Rener Gracie
There’s no budo in stabbing a man in the back. What kind of martial artist is this?
Forgot to plan his escape
Position > submission
Hes about 50 years younger than the average oger.
Probably a ninja. They do that sorta stuff
Thread would be entirely different if it was a nunchucks attack or a throwing star to the back
This story is scary. I was thinking about going to the gym to make myself big and strong but Id hate to be stabbed.
