Jake Paul and Mike Perry had to be separated by security during their face-off, as both made weight ahead of their cruiserweight clash on Saturday.
Paul was set to box Mike Tyson on this date. However, Tyson withdrew after an inflamed ulcer, meaning that fight has now been rescheduled for November 15. Paul is the big favorite, with three wins in a row. He has knocked out his last two opponents with first-round wins over Andre August and Ryan Bourland.
Perry has only one boxing fight under his belt. He was stopped by Kenneth McNeil in 2015. However, he has racked up an impressive run of form in BKFC. He is 5-0, but it remains to be seen if he can replicate that form in boxing. Depending on the results, both men could face each other in an MMA fight. Paul made weight at the second attempt, weighing in at 200 pounds. He intially came over at 200.4 pounds. Perry hit the scales at 196.6 pounds. During the face-off, a brawl broke out.
🔥👊 Jake Paul vs. Mike Perry face offs ends in a BRAWL after just a little push.
