All gave some, some gave all, but Mike Perry gave up a piece of his face to alleviate the boredom of that title fight.

It was a bittersweet night for Mike Perry aficionados, as the living Florida Man Meme put forth one of his best performances. Over three rounds he showing restraint, measured aggression, and grit but netted a busted up face and another L for his troubles.

I’ll be doing a live chat on youtube today at 10:30am EST. It’s an update on the illustrated MMA book I’m making and I’ll take any questions you might have about life, MMA, and surviving in NYC as an artist. Maybe we can talk about all the crime I witnessed and definitely did not participate in.

Take care of yourself and I’ll talk to you tomorrow.
