Perry, with an impressive career across UFC, Triad Combat, and BKFC, brings an unmatched level of experience and power to the ring, making this match a must-watch event for fight fans worldwide.
“When Paul vs. Tyson was rescheduled, I knew immediately that I wanted to still fight on Saturday, July 20. Now, as I prepare for my fight against Iron Mike, there’s no better opponent for me than Mike Perry,” said Jake Paul. “He’s a proven knockout artist who has shown to be a maniac in and out of the ring. This is the perfect experience for me to gain in advance of facing Mike Tyson. But getting that experience comes with risk. Those who know me know I’m a risk taker and while ‘Platinum’ Perry might try to end me, I’m Titanium Jake Paul and I fear no man. I’m going to get the W and give everyone a preview of what I’m bringing to the ring against Mike Tyson. Tune in on DAZN PPV as I return to Tampa and send ‘Platinum’ Perry the Platypus back to bare knuckle for good.”
“Jake Paul claims he fears no man, but on Saturday, July 20, the world will see the truth: he just made the worst mistake of his life in trying to get through me before Iron Mike,” said Mike Perry. “I’m going to make it look easy on Saturday July 20th, and I’m going to teach Jake Paul the most he’s ever learned about fighting.”The post Jake Paul to Face “Platinum” Mike Perry in High-Stakes Cruiserweight Bout at ‘Fear No Man’ first appeared on The Source.The post Jake Paul to Face “Platinum” Mike Perry in High-Stakes Cruiserweight Bout at ‘Fear No Man’ appeared first on The Source.
