Don't know if he's on here or if it's been shared by anyone but crazy how bad Mike Perry got. He could have been a serious force had he stayed focused.

Edit: I never meant he would be a championship fighter. His ceiling was obvious but had he taken advantage of his potential he could have had a very very respectable career and made some decent money

Hard to move rocks when you get older.

Alcohol is a hell of a drug.

He was never great, but these days he looks horrible, he punches and moves like he is underwater. Must be hard drugs and partying, wonder what that dude is gonna do once his MMA career is over.

He was overrated from the start, lets be honest.

Platinum Princess was a better head coach.

Mike Perry never was very talented. He got a few decent wins but overall…. He’s not very good

Tell stories about all his wars while smoking on the porch

Head movement is extremely reflexed based and it takes constant practice at fine tuning it, even with reflexes. Great reflexes can still get fucked by an opponent with feints, good timing, etc.

There is no way Perry is going to be able to keep finesse skills like that up to speed training by himself.

He was working at a good camp and then went his own way to save money. Looked awful since.

Yeah but he needs money to support himself and his family for the next 40 years… it’s gonna suck to have to get a shitty 9-5. I’m guessing he doesn’t have many skills to get a job outside of fighting

He regressed considerably. He looked great against Felder and Ponzi here

I'm not sure what your point is. I didn't imply you couldn't.

He went full Baroni.

As usual you are speaking out of turn, go practice guitar so you can finally learn how to play smoke on the water
