Mike Perry is gearing up for a highly anticipated MMA bout against Nate Diaz, promising a "people's fight" and a "BMF-style altercation." Perry, who has not competed in MMA since April 2021, expressed excitement about returning to his martial arts background. He feels inspired by his earlier training before transitioning to bare-knuckle fighting, a discipline where he has achieved significant success.
Diaz has also been away from MMA, with his last fight in September 2022. Perry anticipates Diaz will focus on cardio and pressure, but he is confident in meeting him head-on. The fight is scheduled for May 16 in Los Angeles and is part of a Jake Paul-promoted event. This event also boasts a headlining match between Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano, though the Perry-Diaz scrap is generating considerable fan excitement.
Beyond his upcoming fight, Perry is also involved with his Dirty Boxing Championship promotion, which is set to host its DBX 6 event on Friday in Miami. This event will stream for free on YouTube. Notably, MMA legend Jon Jones has joined Perry's promotion as a co-owner, signaling its growing influence and trajectory.
