the fact people wants to watch him despite how much he fuckin loses tells a lot about what makes these fighter successful. IDK if its a bad or a good thing, but damn I've always been interested in his "storyline"
@Tom Segura’s Humerus he’s a born brawler but he going up against a proper pro boxer. I really hope it doesn’t go how I think it’s gonna go cause I love Mike , just wish he had someone to guide him to make the right decisions
Hey man he looks good, looks happy, looks excited about his new career and I really love that for him! He’s a hell of a dude and athlete, great potential and I think he will do well in bare knuckle
@Henzo88 because he was losing every other fight. When he first got to the UFC he looked really good, I had high hopes for him and I'll even go as far to say that I think he beat Luque. The problem is I don't know what happened, he started doing stupid shit and fighting like a moron.
@@Viking4real I agree. I think he’s matured since having a kid, also it seems like he was in a toxic relationship with his ex. And I’m sure he’s making way more money now, that would always motivate a fighter lol
I think Mike is finally in the right sport where his talent can shine the most, he's a natural fighter and tough as hell. Bare knuckle is where he should really be able to do well
Ya i agree, generally i don't think that's the right spot for anyone, it's more dangerous, usually for less money, but for perry, I definitely think it's a good fit for his specific skill set
@@eddiehauser6661 it's actually not more dangerous, that's a myth. Fight science has tested no gloves, mma gloves and boxing gloves to see if 1 is more dangerous than the other and actually it's all about the same amount of force you receive to the brain but in fight science it also said boxing was the most dangerous because it has the most padding thus you are able to receive more strikes to the brain due to the padding protecting the opponents hands and your face this results in CTE and is why boxing has more CTE than mma and bare knuckle. Bare knuckle is probably more safe because you don't have protection on your hands your opponent will break his hands eventually. The gloves only exist to protect your hands and stop cuts, that's why ufc has gloves it's to protect hands. Bare knuckle is safer than boxing with gloves
@@GrowingDownUnder Ya, that's always an interesting topic, I've seen so many different opinions, different research, different conclusions. it's actually funny sometimes, cuz it seems like I've seen the same person give two completely different answers depending on what point they are trying to make. I've seen so many people say that the gloves are to protect the hands and the damage to the opponent is equal, but then I've seen so many analysts/fighters talk about it's a lot different getting hit with 4 oz gloves and a lot easier to get knocked out! Not to say I know better than scientists, but i also try to think about my own experience and i've never got hit with mma gloves but I've been hit many times with boxing gloves and many times with no gloves, and personally I would take getting hit with the gloves everytime! Again, maybe there's something scientific that I'm overlooking, but to me it just seems to make sense that if there's something between the 2 objects absorbing some of the force it would be better for both objects involved. Ive thought about it like this before: have you ever played bloody knuckles where you punch eachothers fists until someone quits. Based on the gloves only protecting the puncher theory that would mean if one person put on gloves, in a game of bloody knuckles then only they would benefit. But imagine if you were playing bloody knuckles with someone, don't you think it would feel a lot better for you if they put on a glove?
@@GrowingDownUnder I do definitely agree with the cte thing, which makes sense looking at retired fighters, but at the same time that seems to not make sense because the theory is that you take more punches because they aren't as effective and it's harder to get knocked out. So if it's harder to get knocked out and you can sustain more punches then it seems like the gloves are sort of protecting you no? Maybe it's a case of they protect you in different ways and the danger you face is different types of danger?
The fact that Mike Perry is speaking sense about leveraging the ufc and outside promotions is concerning. A Mike Perry that is actually aware of his surroundings is a problem for everybody.
Would have loved to see Mike Perry fulfil his potential in MMA, good chin, good cardio, hard hitting, natural grappling instincts and showed striking potential. All the best to him tho, looks to be in shape
I can’t exaggerate how much I’m rooting for Mike Perry. I hope he SMOKES this dude tomorrow then gets a Jake Paul fight for the big $$ after this dumb Tommy Fury thing
I thought Perry signed with bare knuckle? Let's go Champ!! I've been a fan since his first UFC ever, "thought you had a friend boy!!" Greatest debut faceoff in the history of the UFC..
The UFC was foolish to let this man go. Fans love him for many reasons. He brings the heat 100% of the time. He has massive heart, great chin, and KO power in both hands. I will always tune in for a Platinum Perry bout. Guaranteed it will be entertaining. And he knows how to sell the fight with his personality. What more do you want in a professional fighter? #platinumarmy
"What more do you want in a professional fighter?" Maybe a fighter who wins more. Mike Perry is fun but he had no future in the UFC. Better for him to go elsewhere.
@@nomic5921 What about people like Conor, hasn't won a fight in years. Cowboy, Diaz's, and I could go on. The UFC wants people who give exciting performances every time. Win or lose. Justin Gaethje gets a performance bonus every time he fights. But he got finished 3 times in his last 6 fights. Yet he headlines cards all the time and makes more money than alot of other lightweights. If you're exciting, you don't have to be the best in the world to be in the UFC. History has shown that time and time again. Thanks for the comment tho bro. Appreciate everyone's opinions. 😉
@@tb303wpf1 Yea, and Mike Perry stuck around for longer than most fighters would be allowed because of his charisma. But he had a bad habit of losing and like I said, you can only lose so many times. Conor's last win was in 2020, which isnt an insanely long time ago and Conor is a huge draw cause of his previous success inside the UFC. Gaethje might've lost his last 3 of 6, but Gaethje is obviously a top fighter in his division. Both guys are in very different situation than Mike. Mike just couldn't get much going which is why it was smart for him to move on. Just my opinion.😉
y'all ppl don't know how long Helen been holding it down with eyes on the game . been putting in solid work for years . shes OG she does a solid interview and shes a dime .. much respect Helen
i bet u he will, theres probably a reason they gave him his matchup as his first fight, typically they wouldnt sign him and pay alot of money for him just to ruin him as an asset
Mike looks like he's doing much better mentally, if so, I'm glad for him. He seems like a really cool dude, just has a problem with making some bad decisions...
So good to see Mike Perry making some good money and having fun! Always fun to watch him fight……and talk from the heart. This may just be his best opportunity.
I really like Mike Perry. He is real like the Diaz brothers. What you see is what you get. He seems like a very honest person that would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. He gives God glory also!
Yea real man because he stands next to a flag and shout freedom second amendment,do you know how neanderthal that sounds? How about raising a child with good values ,respect,caring for others protecting family.friends ,loyality,etc,and I don't mean it always has to be at the end of the barrel of a gun believe it or not the happiest most content societies in the world do not have a second amendment, while the USA equates being the richest country with happyness when they are way down on contentment and the happy fulfilment index etc.Having piss poor health care which is the number one reason for bankruptcy is less important than having guns right? would nice to have both ,but you ain't got that.
UFC should've kept this dude on....he would've always put people in the seats win lose or draw but good for Mike cause he made more 💰 in one fight than he made in 5 UFC fights even though he still took a lot of damage...dude better save a bunch of that money cause he is gonna have severe issues 10-20 years from NOW...dude is a treasure though...love him
Cheers to Mike Perry, he's a true entertainer in combat sports
Fr idc what they paying him after that press conference they need to pay him more
Win or lose he's a true fighter, even if he's looked like shit in some fights.
the fact people wants to watch him despite how much he fuckin loses tells a lot about what makes these fighter successful.
IDK if its a bad or a good thing, but damn I've always been interested in his "storyline"
Such a douchie profile picture
That's a stretch.
“ People gonna bleed! MF’ers gonna get cut open and somebody might DIE!!!”
Lets Go Mike 🥊 🏆
thought it was awesome when he brought that line out again for the Triller presser
He ain’t lying though….
I love how all the boxers freaked out when he said that not knowing that is almost his catchphrase
Bit of a travesty he never went up to fight Strickland. Grim reapers cageside for that one lol
Iconic
Seems more motivated than ever, good for him. love to see him win bij KO
its those non-usada supplements powerin em up
@@jonjonjovi1 frank mir is fighting ain’t no way they really testing that fight he on sus and deca rn
@Tom Segura’s Humerus he’s a born brawler but he going up against a proper pro boxer. I really hope it doesn’t go how I think it’s gonna go cause I love Mike , just wish he had someone to guide him to make the right decisions
I agree he does seem happier & more excited for his fight
@@nickp4207 1000000% when has perry ever been that ripped, dont mind the mexican supplements for some fights
Hey man he looks good, looks happy, looks excited about his new career and I really love that for him! He’s a hell of a dude and athlete, great potential and I think he will do well in bare knuckle
@Henzo88 because he was losing every other fight. When he first got to the UFC he looked really good, I had high hopes for him and I'll even go as far to say that I think he beat Luque. The problem is I don't know what happened, he started doing stupid shit and fighting like a moron.

@Henzo88 absolutely, his early career in the ufc was great but I love to see where he’s at now, I hope he wrecks shit in BK!
So is Triad a 1 off & he fights BKFC after this?
@Jon Jones That might b better then hitting a women Jon.
Mike couldn’t help himself. You gave him a layup on that joke. Lol
I love when Mike fought overseas in Canada
Lmao
Well he is from Africa
🤣...what he had meant was if you look at a big ass map it kind of looks like Canada over sees the United States...🤓
in Uruguay as well...classic mike

I don't think he would have been able to break into the top 5 or become a title contender, but he was always a tough fight for anyone.
he had this kind of tough metality-to be a good fighter.when he needed to work on his skillset istead
This guy deserves wealth and happiness hope he wins
He's a nice guy
@@fightfannerd2078 He hits girls.
Love Mike. He is always fun and has a lot to say. Thanks for having him on.
Just when u thought platty was gonna fall off, he comes back better than ever
How do you know if he's better than ever😂 you haven't seen him fight yet
@@keeganpoteet ikr ! lets see broken nose #4
Perry has a chin. I think he will shine in this format
Mike is entertaining, always enjoy his fights

I see you Jesse. Woulda been great to see Diego Sanchez ex trainer/Shaman/manager fight on here. He would been champ🤣😂

Im gonna miss the Darren Till beef

I busted out laughing when he said that. Classic mike Perry.
I thought Perry signed with bare knuckle? Let's go Champ!! I've been a fan since his first UFC ever, "thought you had a friend boy!!" Greatest debut faceoff in the history of the UFC..
Yeah he did but this was like months ago, some of the fighters on this card took the fights on 3 weeks notice, like Mitrione for example.
I’m happy for him. He’s got a decent amount of buying power and shouldn’t struggle outside the UFC.
And his first interview with Ariel outside court. 😂
That wasn't his debut...
Kind of
What a fight Mike and Luque gave us in Uruguay 🙏🏻 best wishes for Platinum
im so glad they picked perry for their first fight. dudes still a fuckin killer and i really hope this triad thing takes off

Thats shit was hilarious
I read this comment just as he did it haha
Nothing but respect and love to Platinum Perry. let’s go! 🇺🇸
Would love to see Mike get a knockout

Mike perry low key smart talking about being bigger than the ufc. If your name can sell go get that money.
Respect platinum Perry!!!!
I used to knock him for making such poor decisions, but I respect the new Mike. Congrats, sir.
He not knew lol
good interview , genuine great job

I like Mike. He is sometimes crazy, but no problem - He fight for living.
We need more fighters like Mike Perry. Dude has personality and he is funny. Some of these other fighters have the personality of a wet paper towel!
"And that's my Jamie Foxx impersonation" 😂😂💀
Helen you’re the best!
LETS GO MIKE PERRY ! Thanks Helen Yee Sports for sharing
Perry is a fighter through and through never ever been in a boring fight
All the very best, Mike Perry!
Let’s go platinum!✊🏻🙏🏻
He’s in the Diaz brothers category for me. I watch every fight and appreciate them for it
I am so glad that Perry got out of and became the free agent. all fighters should fellow him.
