excited to perform myself and um you know I got to steal the show these guys are trying to steal the show from me I got to take it I got to take it up a notch at the end of the night and then we turn over to your opponent Thiago Alves now Thiago of course you went 2 and0 you became champion in the bkfc you stepped away now you come back and you see Mike Perry has been on an incredible tear he has stayed busy inside of that squared circle is that going to be a problem is there going to be any rust when you step in on Saturday no I prepare myself I prepare my mind my body and I'm ready to go no you're not oh I am trust me no you ain't ready for this oh dude you'll see it you ain't ready all right let's go over to our heavyweight champion Mick Terell obviously listen it didn't take but just moments before before we started this press conference that you and Lorenzo hunt were nose to noose already kind of talking to each other Lorenzo very animated did not want to be sitting on the side of the table that he is right now what do you make of Lorenzo hunt as it's only just a few days away till you actually step in there against one of the greatest that's ever done it um I think the thing with Lorenzo is I think he's Well Suited back at school I think he's got the mental age of a 10 year World he's like a school bully I think he'd be well suited there well let's go over to learn O hunt a two Division champion certainly in the conversation of goat status here in the bkfc steps up to any opponent and now looks for his third championship title Lorenzo you're on the eve of possibly being the greatest that's ever done it inside the squared Circle how are you feeling as you get ready to go after the heavyweight championship I feel great I'm already the best that's ever done it I'm already the goat I don't know if you guys were paying attention to the numbers but I got more fights and more wins than everybody up here combined there's no [ __ ] way I should be sitting on the bide so I bled for this teeth blood bones my wife lost a child in pursuit of this and I never called out a fight don't [ __ ] sit me on the bside while I sit next to bums guys with four fights two fights one fight no fight no fight 12 fights stop the [ __ ] games that's why I was upset so as far as the IQ thing and the mental of a 10-year-old what are you talking about I'm the upper eching

any sort of questions that we have for our Fighters and for David Feldman let's go ahead and get that going um my first question is for Lorenzo everything you've said you're going to do you've done a lot of people are out here saying that Mi too big for you going up and waits a bad move what do you say to the naysayers that are still saying you don't have a shot when you have the proven track record uh to all naysayers uh naysayers say nay you know they're sheep they're they're followers they just look they don't fight they don't know they have no heart they just look and they shoot a shot and they say ah it's off when it goes in they say nothing they don't say sorry they don't say I was wrong they just wait for you to shoot again so they can say It's Gonna Miss eventually I don't [ __ ] miss um for example 2021 uh knockout of the night candidate for for fighter of the Year 2022 fighter of the Year 2023 knockout of the Year 2024 three division ch stupid you don't watch the show I am the show I'm not the face of bear knuckle as they keep telling me I'm the knuckles of bear knuckle yeah for you Mick um this is definitely a completely opposite character comparison uh different character sorry you are very relax very reserved quiet do you think that Lorenzo goes over the line with some of his boisterous juggernut style um that's just the way he is and he's I mean he tried to calls a white supremacist last week I say I don't know where that come from you know I mean I've I've never shown any indication of that I just I think he just his mouth opens shed falls out you know I mean that's just the way it is if he's got nothing to say he just fills fills an empty room he must think he's just going to say something that's the way he is can't help it he's just U narcissistic I'm going to reply to that um a lot of you people like I said you're all new you're all new to this you're all fans I spent nearly 10 years in a in a place in a in prison wrongfully convicted for a crime I didn't commit took nearly 10 years for them to figure the [ __ ] out that's a place where you need to know and recognize Aryan Brotherhood tattoos he is covered in them I'm not stupid it's life or death if you don't know what you know and I know so can play the nice guy but I know because it's life for death for me for a very long time stach take your shirt off take your shirt off show them take your shirt off like I say you just open your mouth and [ __ ] falls out you think you've got to say smach and smach falls out and it's [ __ ] stinks a [ __ ] uh tyan with weekly bus this is uh for Lorenzo uh champ you are going to uh compete for the three Division World Champion I think people should put a more uh importance on that because you are right now recognized as the goat but you are about to solidify that exact answer in that title with that becoming said if that does happen and you are the three uh three Division World Champion are you planning to stay in the heavyweight division or are you going to venture off like you like to do and take everyone else's belts out of my love and respect for this company um I've decided to let David Felman choose the path um I spent a lot of time as a light heavyweight uh Champion nearly three years as the braining defending Champion over two divisions um it's kind of stagnated the divisions it's made it where the people don't even want to try um I struck a deal with Dave to go for the heavyweight championship and to allow the division some room to breathe so after I become the world three division champ I will allow the other uh divisions to name new Champions uh if something shakes and or somebody does something I don't like then maybe I'll pop back down and kick they ass and take it back but for right now I'll let him uh I'll let him breathe um the next question is for Mike Perry um you've become quite huge lately um you were also really big in UFC but with bkfc uh superstardom you become this uh the face of it now you know Lorenzo likes to say he's the the knuckles of it but you're clearly the face a bare knuckle and when you go against uh a veteran like Alves are you thinking any differently than you have when you went with Eddie or anything like that as far as like dialing and because I know there's a lot of outside influence coming in and like what are you doing to prepare mentally for Alves um if it ain't broke don't don't try to fix it you know what I mean uh I've been on the same path all this time since I got here and um it's putting my Knuckles up against people's face when I when I signed to fight them you know you know they come they call they offer a name and I say yes to it and I prepare I got my team and we do what we got to do and you know I think I've had a a tough selection of fights in be knuckle which is why that I get that credential that I could be and am the face of be knuckle and I'm on top of the card and uh I'm grateful for it people know the intensity that I put into this and um it shows in my fights Mike Perry only knows how to fight one way and I'm I'm coming after you we're over here uh this question is for David Felman Chris Jensen bar knuckle news um boss you got four of the probably toughest heavyweights sitting up there with you and they're fighting tomorrow night one for a belt could this also be maybe an elimination title for the next heavyweight defense defense it probably makes a lot of sense sense obviously I want to see the way the fights go tomorrow night I mean on Saturday night and if they go the way that I think they're going to go absolutely it's it's going to be a uh world championship fight and an Eliminator at the same time but I'm not going to say that because I don't think that Todd Duffy and Ben Rothwell has even a 1% chance of being a boring fight but if it is for some reason then we'll rethink it but I can't see that happening and I I see it lining up that way uh question for Mike Perry your last two fighter your last two opponents were former UFC Champions you're now stepping into the ring with somebody who's held bkfc gold uh how do you view Thiago in comparison to your last couple opponents I've been saying it for years next one's the best one and this is the next one you know and um I've been climbing every fight has been better than the last and it's been a tougher opponent they found a way to make to find me uh bigger names better names or names that just were you know bigger when you look at the details you know the fact that he was a bkfc champion and um you know I don't think he ever beat a UFC champion um and I did and now because I've been winning like this in bkfc uh I mean my last fights didn't go more than four minutes so um I think he's bringing it and I can't wait to meet him in the middle on Saturday and uh take that credit that he got as a bare knuckle champion and then you know I'll really be a stablished in this game and for Thiago it's been a while since we've seen you in the squared Circle if there was another name on the other end of that phone call would we see you come back or was it the Mike Perry name that brought you back uh it was the Mike Perry name and the money way to elaborate on that one there baly yeah question for both Mike Perry and Thiago there's been some crazy Knockouts already in 2024 some crazy moments in Combat Sports couple weeks ago we saw two guys agree to uh kind of meet in the center they pointed to the ground they threw away all strategy and uh you know just threw down so here at knuckl Mania can we get our King Of Violence moment where the two of you guys mutually agree to throw strategy out the window and just throw down I mean that that was my strategy from the beginning yeah we kind of me in the middle already you know so it's going to happen you ain't going to meet in the middle you going to run I'll be right there right in front of you brother trust me all right if you're in front of me then you get knocked out no I won't I'm too slick bro ain't nothing slick about you you stiff man you stiff as a board you big old head like that can't miss you're boring I got some bonus money if you guys want to stand in that Center in the circle and bang it up for that bonus one more one more question for the Renzo hunt Mick said throughout the times that you guys have met that he's going to put you on your back foot he's going to walk you down what is your response to that good luck with that and then for MC Terell you brought this up the first time when you won the title you said Lorenzo's too short I can't even see him talking in the back do we know how tall Lorenzo is Lorenzo says I remember watching the Fate Lorenzo put on he was 6' three he's he's not 6' three and then he now says he's 6 foot but like I don't even think he's 6 foot I mean if I want to measure this I've actually brought a t measure Lorenzo wants to take off his cub and heels if you want to measure something you want to take off your shoes and take them lifts out your shoes I bet about 5 10 we can uh if you really want to measure something since you brought a ruler you can figure out who the who the who the heavyweight champ is what the [ __ ] are you talking about I'll throw my name in the Hat for the measure this one's for the boss David Felman um I don't want to take too much from um from La cuz I think this is an amazing thing we you've gotten to California you got it done but I can't help but think of the future the future looks so bright how close are we getting to Vegas um we're getting close everywhere I mean there's there's really no one that has any reason to say no to this sport anymore right we didn't just create a a promotion we didn't create a sport we created a phenomenon and they have to let us in now you know when I first started this thing the media wasn't writing about us and I said you know we went on to some of the biggest shows now and I said you're one of the guys that said they would never talk about us and they're talking about us and when we sell the kind of tickets we sell and we do the kind of views we do they they really can't say no to us anymore question for David Feldman uh nonrelated to knuckl Mania we just found out that Christine FIA lost her opponent for Mohan son in a couple weeks do you guys have a plan for a replacement or rescheduling of that fight um we'll talk about that um I'm working on something for Christine so we'll know soon hi I have a question for um Lorenzo what will it be for you to um for your legacy to be a three-time champion in three different weight classes um honestly uh like I said when I came into this organization I came through the tryouts shout out to everybody who's going to the tryouts and doing what they need to do to get in position uh to be great uh I came right into this organization I knew for a fact what I would be and and how it would go and I told everybody but they didn't believe me and then I started on the path and I took the 185 title and I told everybody how I would do it and when I would do it and I did it and they still didn't believe me so after I become the triple World Champ I'll grab the mic from my friend Cyrus and I'll say do you [ __ ] believe me now that's what it means to me do you believe me now I don't let people take my mic but I'll let you take the mic if you get three championships in three divisions oh [ __ ] fair enough this question's for Alves Alves you made a comment before that Michael Perry was being sorry Mike Perry was being um protected why do you feel like that and who do you feel like was protecting him from you uh we were supposed to fight a long time ago uh when I became a champion you know and that fight never happened uh we kind of have the same management you know and was one of the reasons I walk away because we're going to get the fight done we're going to get the money and you know I just didn't want to sit and wait around so you know I mean cuz you're boring you couldn't get the money because you weren't getting paid and you weren't getting paid the money you wanted and your opponents weren't getting paid to fight you and they never even called me as that was an option and you're the reason we didn't fight the first time and now I came in the company started slaying [ __ ] and got paid and now you com for a paycheck and you know what happens when you come for that check almost 3 years with fight now they call me in to the biggest uh uh fight you know because of me you better thank me that you get this opportunity because I'm the one who made noise over here and you were like oh [ __ ] now I can finally get a little bit of money yeah I'm going to get a little bit of money you coming for the money knock the [ __ ] out too should say bro you going to get knocked the [ __ ] out bro with your bald ass head [ __ ] with those [ __ ] ugly ass wrinkles you got in your head your fat brain yeah man stupid this is too smooth for you bro man ain't nothing smooth about you look at your big ass nose you got a pig nose you look like Mrs Piggy you got a big old ass head okay [ __ ] well your punches ain't going to do nothing to it you'll see it you'll see it my good you got a bald ass head for now question for uh ELO gulo um with everything you accomplished as a as a
