      Talk to me once you’ve actually delved into the person. Mike is a protector. He’s Nick and Nate (Diaz) approved. Do not start no trouble there will not be any problems. I have watched this fighter grow throughout the years. While he is dangerous, he still wears his heart on his sleeve. I guess that is what I mean he is sweet. He lets you know the boundaries. Does that make more sense?

    This podcast was 1 of my favorite JRE ones in a while. Definitely my favorite fighter podcast with Joe. Mike had me laughing more than most of the comedians Joe brings on and he wasn’t even trying to be funny all the time, just being himself. The amount of confusion between the 2 was hilarious, so many things were just going over each others heads like they were speaking different languages. I wish it went longer but I could tell Mike was starting to get burnt out from having the longest conversation of his life. It would be epic to have Mike Perry on Mike Tyson’s podcast.

    Love that Mike has found not only a good place, but the place perfect for him. I remember growing up, how much I loved fighting, but really just loved brawling. Thought about trying to pursue a career in it, but decided it would be a bad choice because of how difficult it is to actually be successful, make money, and avoid destroying your body in the process.
    That is what I love about Mike - he just DGAF. Straight dawg, just goes at it... every single fight. Always said the issue was, he didn't fight smart enough. He has some really good, solid skills. But he loves brawling so much, he would get caught in traps or out-pointed by more strategic MMA fighters. Bareknuckle... he forces it to just be a battle of wills and souls. He will NOT back down and is almost impossible to put down... so unless you can take AND dish more pain and violence than Mike Perry, you will lose.
    If there was a real-life equivalent of a D&D barbarian... that would be Mike Perry. Wanderlei back in the day. Just lunatics for violence and aggression.

      I tried messing around with it but found it impeded my vision and made my punches telegraphed and awkward. You might get called for backfist due to the mechanics of the strikes in modern boxing even... I will say it might be more valuable than a standard high guard if you're against the ropes or trying to get in because I do feel like it more effectively covers the most vulnerable areas, especially if you've got long enough arms to wrap your ears and mix it up with a long-guard defence, which is primarily how foreman made it valuable.

      What do you think about Boxing as a sport in general no matter the generations ? Sugar Ray Robinson, Gene Fullmer, Alexis Arguello, Roberto Duran, Carlos Monzon, Jake Lamotta, Mike Tyson, Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano etc ... ? I mean, do you think any of those Boxers would have done well in Bare Nuckle ? I tend to think so ..
      Because Bare Knuckle is a form of Boxing right ? I would have liked the likes Errol Spence or Gennady Golovkin to do Bare Knuckle for one fight .. Errol has a video on youtube where he is bare handed with another Guy ..
