Based on a sparring session Mike Perry and Jake Paul had a few years ago, Paul’s trainer, BJ Flores, recently predicted ‘Platinum’ would get himself knocked out if he was aggressive from the very beginning. Additionally, Flores also mentioned that ‘The Problem Child’ had the better of Perry in every round they sparred.

On the other hand, predicting an easy win at the sold-out Amalie Arena, Jake Paul declared he would expose Mike Perry’s weaknesses to the world. Although he acknowledged ‘Platinum’ had fought “some legends,” Jake Paul remained convinced that his boxing was head and shoulder above Perry’s. So of course, there is a lot on the line for Perry as well. Can the “BKFC King of Violence” title-holder triumph over Paul?

With the “BKFC King of Violence” title on his shoulder, carrying luggage, Mike Perry entered Amalie Arena. Like Jake Paul, he wore a half-sleeve white shirt and a pair of black trousers. However, reacting to Perry’s walk, a fan said, “On his way to lose!”

Meanwhile, a fan did not like how Perry almost ignored his wife, Latory Perry. In the fan’s opinion, he should have held Latory’s hands instead of a belt or luggage. So, they commanded, “Put the belt on your waist and hold your lady’s hand, my guy.”

On the other hand, based on the victories Perry has in BKFC a fan felt Mike’s “violence and explosiveness will lead to Jake getting knocked out.” “Don‘t think Jake fought anyone that applies pressure like him,” they added, rooting for ‘Platinum.’

According to one fan, “Mike should win this. If not then the whole sport is rigged.”

However, one confessed that they liked both Paul and Perry. “I wanna see a fun fight,” they humbly commented.

Looks like, some of the fans were right as Jake Paul upset Mike Perry.

Jake Paul cracked Mike Perry’s rib

When Jake Paul promised victory over Mike Perry, the BKFC fighter called Paul’s speech “cap.” But now, after he was stopped by Jake Paul, Perry changed his tune. On being asked if Paul surprised ‘Platinum’ with his performance, Perry answered, “He hit me with a right hook to the body in the beginning, cracked my rib like [in the] first 10 seconds.” Although Perry tried to avenge the right hook to the body, Paul never exposed himself to Mike.

“I just was never able to even see it. I think he was just too fast. He kept his feet moving,” said a disappointed Mike Perry. “His right hook hit me easier than I expected. It just kept coming. I am used to taking hits. No big deal.” With that said, what did you think of Mike Perry’s performance against Jake Paul? Did you see the stoppage coming? Let us know in the comments below.
