Mike Perry is all set for a least-expected fight against fitness influencer Bradley Martyn. Martyn made it a habit to call out top fighters in his podcast. At the beginning of 2023, the fitness influencer shocked the combat sports world by claiming that he could defeat boxing star Devin Haney in a street fight. Later, while chatting with former UFC star Nate Diaz, Martyn stated that he could destroy Diaz in a street fight. The YouTuber’s confidence didn’t sit well with the sensational boxer, Jake Paul. Followed by his callouts, Paul offered a whopping $2 million to Bradley to take up a fight against Perry.
Surprisingly, UFC commentator Joe Rogan was unaware of the whole drama going on between Paul, Perry, and Martyn. When Brendan Schaub and Joe Rogan sat in JRE, the former UFC fighter detailed Paul’s offer to Rogan. The 55-year-old didn’t take much time to take a side. Now, after coming across the conversation between Schaub and Rogan, Perry has shown a green signal for the bout and has made a huge promise. Let’s find out what Perry’s promise is.
