While undoubtedly bias in his assessment, Logan Paul is predicting a horrible night for Mike Perry on July 20.
The BKFC superstar and former UFC fighter faces Logan’s younger brother Jake Paul in a boxing match later this month at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Fla. Jake holds physical and statistical advantages over Perry on paper, but many believe it’s Perry’s durability, and never-go-away style, that will give Jake his toughest test to date.
The elder Paul brother said on Instagram Stories that the notion couldn’t be more incorrect.
“I see a lot of people saying, ‘Mike’s the toughest guy on the planet, this is Jake’s biggest challenge yet,’” Logan said. “Yo, you’re fools. You are fools if you think Mike Perry stands a chance against Jake Paul.”
Perry holds a win over Michael Seals in a hybrid-rules boxing match at Triller Triad Combat in November 2021. Since then, he’s run off five straight wins in the BKFC ring.
The current WWE U.S. champion says Perry’s incredible will won’t be enough against his bigger, younger, power-punching brother.
“I don’t give a shit how tough you are,” Logan said. “Can you box? When Mike Perry tries to use his head against my brother’s cannon of a right hand, I promise you, it’s going to be devastating for him.
“He already beat Tyron Woodley — floored him, beat him twice — who is much better than Mike Perry, an MMA fighter who didn’t quite make it so he went into [BKFC]. Yes, he’s a badass. Yes, he can brawl. But this isn’t brawling, this is boxing. This is playing chess with your fists, and my brother has been doing this for the past six years. It’s all he wants, and I promise you he’s going to shock the world once again.”
