Jake Paul and Mike Perry are about to take on each other in a boxing bout later this month. Going into the fight, both boxers are known for their trash-talking. While fans are expecting some unhinged verbal exchange in the fight week. The start of it, however, is quite bizarre.
Jake Paul and Mike Perry recently sat down for their first face-to-face interview. During the conversation, both tried their best to intimidate each other. Perry weirdly mentioned that he would target Paul’s eyeballs during the fight. The BKFC king also mentioned his former opponent Eddie Alvarez’s reference to further support his claims and showed his knuckles.
Your little baby punches can’t even f**** reach my brain stem bro. I’m gonna dig through your eyeball and find your memories…you see that? That’s Eddie Alvarez’s eye right there.

Jake Paul couldn’t put a straight face on and started laughing a little while asking Perry to not try that. Paul also suggested Perry get his knuckles treated given the potential of having Hepatitis C. While both fighters were trying to look tough, it came as one of the most hilarious moments of the interview.

Paul was originally planning to fight the legendary Mike Tyson but the 58-year-old got a medical emergency which forced him to pull out. However, Paul has not dropped the idea of fighting Tyson but in the meantime, fighting Perry made sense. While Tyson’s prime days are long gone, ‘Platinum’ is currently in his destruction era and is extremely dangerous for Paul. Something many experts will support too.

Jake Paul’s decision to take on an active fighter like Mike Perry has earned him some respect in the fight community. Going into the fight, Perry is confident and has even accused Paul of steroids. ‘The Problem Child’ on the other hand has remained calm and hasn’t shown any fear against the bare-knuckle superstar.

Joe Rogan recently sat down with Brendan Schaub and others to discuss the fight between Paul and Perry. Schaub constantly mentioned the pressure Perry possessed during his fights. Rogan also seconded that and expressed how dangerous Mike Perry can be against someone like Jake Paul.
How many people are counting out Mike Perry? It’s that interesting. He’s a gamebred pitbull. Mike Perry is dangerous.

Mike Perry is currently on an impressive five-fight win streak in the BKFC. He has fought and defeated former UFC greats such as Thiago Alves, Luke Rockhold, and Eddie Alvarez. Nevertheless, the fight between these two is considerably bigger and fans would love to see the ‘King of Violence’ do his thing on July 20th.
