My dear Chael cuzz you talk about it.. You make mike perry a big deal deal.... you make all these guys IMPORTANT

[@spencerdunn6933]

Mike Perry is legitimately scary. He just folds pro fighters. You can tell other fighters fear fightin' him. Bare Knuckle was the best thing to ever happen to Perry.

[@dataphoenix8004]

fold old retire mma fighters, he is the bare knuckle jake paul

[@SurfingWithAliens]

You can already hear the changes in Perry's speech. Sure he can take a punch and that carries him through a fight. Nature of the game and his constantly being able to take heavy shots just is going to deteriorate his brain functions. How can you call that the best thing to happen for him.

[@Gulb180]

@@SurfingWithAliensdata isn’t out but it appears that bare knuckle causes more superficial damage but less brain damage due the pin point damage rather than a whole head twist/ rock, coupled with the reality that knuckles can take a lot less damage than a boxing glove and fighters will not be hitting as hard

[@SurfingWithAliens]

@@Gulb180 That is just silly, all people are a little different about the punches they can take. Taking those shots like Perry does will definitely cause brain damage. I have watched him since he started in the UFC. You can see it happening to Perry. That is like saying If I hit you with a wood bat it will cause more damage than an aluminum bat. But the truth is both bats will cause serious damage.

[@herrono4964]

@@SurfingWithAliens Yeah but the lots of the fighters in the ufc take similar shots and in larger frequencies due to the fights going longer, he's spoken the way he does throughout his whole career. The fact that he's taking less shots than he would in mma is definitely good for him.

Yes. His body size and fight style is genetically engineered for bare knuckle. I also think his energy is making the sport more interesting. I think Chael is kinda onto something w Mcgregor’s investment. Perry is a lot of star power rn too!

Coach JT is the truth 👊🏾

[@Razear]

He found his niche post-MMA where he was able to excel. Leaving the UFC with a checkered run turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

[@kev30631]

In all honesty give some credit to Ariel helwani . He gave Mike Perry a rather large social media platform to become familiar to us and to present and expose the funny , oddball personality That he has.

[@meridianheights6255]

I'm really glad you did a video on this, and him, and Conor. Nobody's talking about it on the channels I watch. Platinum Mike Perry is special. Has the delay of Conor's return, and the lack of a bout agreement for the Chandler fight have something to do with the BKFC partnership with Conor? I think that may be the case. I guess it'll all come out eventually.

[@alexhawkins5106]

Perry lives in Clermont, trains at Teknique boxing gym in Clermont I can see the hill it's on from my kitchen table where I'm currently sitting. And his coach is "jt" James Taylor

[@SergioMendoza760]

When Chael went into the difference between the boxing gloves and the mma gloves, only to say Mike Perry has no gloves was a genuinely eye opening and bad ass moment lol. I mean it just puts into perspective how god damn tough Mike Perry is! And I genuinely believe he’s not better than anyone he’s beaten skill wise. He’s just tougher, meaner, and is so much more comfortable with the pain than any of his opponents are that they cannot deal with him.

[@jeffthompson6248]

Chael, what are you talking about? Mike Perry had an amazing coach change...he went from a legit MMA coach to his girlfriend, now wife. WOW, what an amazing coach she must be, more legit than Deigo's boy, whatever the hell his name was. Glad to see Mike having great success! He is always entertaining, before, during and after the fights.

[@pablocastilloiii9913]

It’s crazy cause I remember working at table82 in Lubbock texas about 4-5 years ago. Mike Perry showed up there to eat. Next thing I know there’s a big commotion going through the restaurant. Go out to see and it’s Mike Perry punching some old white guy😂 wish I had the sense to have my phone out. Wish I could have met him. Things escalated so quick. They had to get him out of there.

The reason Perry is so good is partly because of his shoulder muscles, not because of just the bulk, but take a good look, his shoulder muscles goes down halfway his bicep, he’s a genetic freak like Lesnar. Can you please make a video on that Chael.

[@pryx4661]

I remember 3 years ago the domestic abuse situation with Mike and his old girl Danielle Nickerson. His mom was on the phone with the police and couldn't even recall his birthday date lol. And now 3 years later, Mike is happily married with two kids and seemingly matured as a man. All the while his ex looks like she aged 20 yrs and blew up like a cow. Glad Mike changed his surroundings and didn't take the War Machine path.
