Former UFC scrapper Mike Perry has promised fans violence as he heads into his second Bare Knuckle Boxing bout against Michael Page on Aug.20.
The Bellator welterweight contender clashes with Perry in next weekend’s main event at Wembley Arena, which marks the organization’s first trip to the UK. The fight announcement came as a shock to many considering Page’s last contest was for Bellator gold, and the thirty-five-year-old has never fought in bare-knuckle. Perry, on the other hand, left victorious on his BKFC debut in February vs. Julian Lane.
In the lead-up to fight night, Perry has been sending Page warnings and is adamant he doesn’t know what he’s let himself in for stepping between the ropes. Despite the threats, Perry has shown his respect for the talented striker but questions his toughness when it comes to the viciousness of BKB.
Mike Perry Talks MVP BKFC Fight
“I want to see what happens when I do connect with you and I do get some cuts on your face. I want to see what happens then,” Mike Perry said when faced off with Mike Perry in the BKFC press conference.
Although never competing in the sport, Page shrugged it off and dismissed Perry’s doubt, stating: “It won’t happen”.
There is no question about Perry’s shear heart and durability when inside the ring or Octagon. Fans enjoy watching the gangster-like style he brings into battle with him. During his twenty-two professional fights, Perry was only stopped once by strikes, which gave him a bucket full of confidence leading into Aug.20.
“You slippery little snake boy. I’m coming after you. I’m coming for you. You should be worried, MVP. I’m a psychopath,” Perry screamed into the camera.
As it stands, Page has signed to BKFC on a one-fight deal and has aspirations of returning to Bellator after the fight, having previously fallen short in his last outing to Logan Storley at Bellator 281 for interim gold. Page addressed the mixed reactions he got from the fighting community after diving head first into BKB.
“I get a lot of different types of reactions when I’m telling people,” Page said. “Even now, it’s been announced for a little while and people are still like ‘are you actually doing this?’. Similar to MMA when it first came through, people just saw it as barbaric. They didn’t see the skill and level of commitment that athletes had, it’s the same with bare-knuckle now. People have a negative appeal about initially.”

Julian Lane was still trash talking while being dominated on the ground by Austin Hubbard at XMMA 5.
This was Lane’s first MMA match since 2018, where he lost by rear naked choke. The former Ultimate Fighter contestant has been making his money fighting in the BKFC.
He has a record of 3-6 at BKFC and had a fantastic feud with former UFC prospect Mike Perry. In the lead to the fight, Lane was constantly talking about Perry and the things he would do to him inside the ring. He even threw a full water bottle at Perry while he was doing an interview to sell the fight. He lost in that grudge match and the two didn’t even bury the hatchet after the match.
Julian Lane is known as being a trash talker, and this was just another example
In the video you can hear Lane talking smack while being controlled.
“Stand up. Let’s go man, f**k you doing? Holding me down like a b***h. I don’t give a f**k. You want to bang? F**k is that? What you gonna’ do? You ain’t doin’ nothing b***h. You’re a hoe, that’s why they [UFC] cut you bro. You can’t get into the UFC like this.” Lane said while eating numerous elbows.
It’s ironic that Lane would speak on getting to the UFC and cut, when he never even made it into the promotion. Hubbard fought in the UFC 7 times in his career, most recently in August of 2021, when he lost to Vinc Pichel. Hubbard ended his UFC career with a 3-4 record, and although he had a losing record in the octagon, he at least made it to the biggest promotion in the world and even got a few wins.
What do you think of Lane talking trash while being hit with elbows?
