This is young Mike Perry. A dreamboat.

In 2017 Mike was 11-1 in MMA and 4-1 in the

UFC!


this is him before his fight with Tim Means. Downing Cheeseburgers and fries and beers on Instagram and tagging his opponent……

Who beat him up.

Something disillusioned this guy. He has wins over Alex Oliveira and Paul Felder.

Honestly I think he's right where he belongs. And I don't mean that in a bad way. Mike dosent have the focus needed to grind to the top of MMA. But bareknuckle embraces his brawl and blood style. Not going to get styled on with kicks, not going to get grappled up. A place where he can truly whip hooks, overhands, and collar tie to blast some uppercuts. He could be a fun draw for them. And they seem to be paying alright for these more notable UFC names

I don't know what he is doing in his free time, but I can't think of many fighters that physically diminished that much, that young
 
Bare Knuckle is not for the weak of stomach. The tape job on the knuckles allow a single clean hook to open the eyebrow up so the fight becomes a blood bath that closer resembles a good bar fight rather than a sporting competition.
 
Mike could've just grappled Means and choked him out. Instead, he let his ego get in the way and brawled like an idiot vs a guy with a massive reach advantage and got jabbed silly.
 
Him and Baroni should square off as “The Best Evaaaa.”

Actually, no. Both need to get their heads checked, literally.
 
He is clearly suffering from some undiagnosed illness.

But he seems to be doing much better currently.
 
Things changed for him after the break up. Also during his new relationship and starting his family. Seems like he's better focused now though. He's fighting a bit better now than his previous fights, but he also did step down in competition so it's hard to really gauge his current level. His fighting definitely is affected by his personal life.
