Mike Perry delivered on his promise of a quick and easy night in the main event of BKFC’s annual blockbuster show.
Perry faced fellow former UFC veteran Thiago Alves in the KnuckleMania 4 headliner Saturday at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. “Platinum” needed just 60 seconds to put Alves away, as he dropped him with a big left hand. Alves was able to make it to his feet before the 10-count, however he couldn’t keep his footing as he was badly hurt, leading to the referee waving things off.
Following the win, Perry delivered a heated post-fight promo, calling out Darren Till, and even sending a respectful message to Nate Diaz, who was sitting in the crowd taking in the action.
Fellow pro fighters, including new BKFC co-owner Conor McGregor, took in Perry’s handiwork, and gave their reactions to another stoppage win for the face of the promotion.
This mtfk @PlatinumPerry is absolutely savage at @bkfc_uk congrats bro
