How long till Mike Perry gets his first title shot?

[daltonames]

he'll never crack the top 5, let alone fight for the belt.

He just won his last 2 earning POTN both times, Jouban on the other hand.....

He hasn't faced any high level guys yet. Let's see how he does against a top 10 guy.
Jouban is good fighter, well rounded but not a world beater, and he took Perry to school.

 

[ChildoftheCorn]

I hope you mean first and only. After that it's all defenses.

That says just as much about Perry.

And his last fight was a small lightweight they pulled from some regional circuit on 3 days notice.

 

[Kingofthestreets]

I'd say Platinum would be in contention next year.

 

[Franc Mittelo]

I say within 2 years max.

2 years will be too late for the guy. He was beaten by Jouban, so there is a good probability that the Top 5 to Top 10 170 fighters beat him.

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

He needs a while to work his way up the ladder. Let him become more well-rounded. He already has black belt hands. The sky could be the limit for him. #HEADCLEANOFF !!!

Probably never but we'll see,he's making decent improvements and has the power to beat guys that are much better than him technically,the great equalizer.He also has the charisma and fan friendly style to get an underserved shot since the UFC is how it is these days which obviously improves his chances of getting a shot greatly.

Charisma? He has the charisma of dog shit on your shoe.

 

[Garibaldi]

After he KO's Lawler in the first round.

 

[Jawth]

I dont see him contending for a title ever. He'll have a Leben-like career or exciting KOs and beatdown losses of his own.

 

[Papawash]

I say 1 to 2 fights max. That black dude at 170 better be ready for the GOAT.

 

[Kumason]

I guess "personality" would have been a better word,you know what I meant.

First win was Ellenberger, only two wins in nine fights are the now 0-6 Koscheck and 1-5 Matt Brown.

Second was random unsigned 155er on three days notice.

Nobody is saying he sucks but he hasn't beaten anyone as good or better than Jouban to distance himself from that loss. Alan losing after that makes Perry look worse, not better.

 

[Danespina]

If he beats Robbie Lawler that's it.

[Gnaww]

He is probably two wins away.
Which is not good for him. He is not ready for that level yet.

That's what people said about No Love. I honestly believe Mike is the next man to hold the WW title.

Cody never lost to a gatekeeper...

I think he needs to avenge the loss to Alan "Zoolander" Jouban, first. Getting beat up by a male model in public is embarrassing.

Losing a decision to another professional fighter that is good looking is embarrassing? You sound ugly.
