Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship’s “King of Violence” titleholder Mike Perry returns to mixed martial arts on May 16 on the Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano fight card. “Platinum” takes on inaugural UFC ”BMF” challenger Nate Diaz at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California.
Perry is taking his Most Valuable Promotion’s and Netflix opportunity seriously. He’s been putting in the work in the gym and is ready to go six weeks out from the event.
“I’m so ecstatic, bro. I’m doing incredible in training. I’m in fantastic shape,” Perry told TMZ Sports. “Training has been incredible. I’m ready for this opportunity.”
It’s been five years since Perry fought a mixed martial arts fight. It’s been more than three years for Diaz. Despite the time away from MMA, Perry plans to steal the show on May 16.
“I’m the most active athlete, probably, on this fight card,” said Perry. “We’ve got a lot of star power on the card, and me and Nate looking to steal the show. I am.”
“I’m training for it. I’m consistently working. I’m very inspired by from like the going back to MMA aspect and training my body fully, you know, with everything and all the moves, all the martial arts I did when I was younger before I got into the success of bare-knuckle fighting,” continued Perry.
“I’m looking to go in and give the people the bloody people’s fight, people’s main event show that they’re looking for, the real BMF-style altercation. Meet Nate in the middle and, you know, spread some blood.”
