Given those examples, there might be a few ways to do this -- either try to match from the start of the string:
s/abc\w+\s+\w+(?:, *\w+)\s+//; # match and remove unwanted initial co
+ntent
or else just look for what you want to keep at the end:
s/.*\s(\w+\s+\w+)$/$1/; # match desired end content and remove everyt
+hing before it
And of course, if you know in advance how those last two tokens are spelled, you could even use rindex() and substr():
$_ = substr( $_, rindex( $_, 'yuio jklh' ));
