I want to know how his son turned out respectful and humble most of the time, not to mention successful. Theo was not appreciating the truth Mike was saying.
You guys are killing me 😂😂😂 It’s almost unbearable to watch Mike do it again the nod. Like in his head he thinking, “Pussy is this interview for me or you”.
Imagine going to the Perry’s house with some Christmas cookies and they swat the tray out of your hands like “You thought you had a friend boyyyy! Aaaaaa!!!”
I had a friend named Michael perry when I was very young and he was the biggest nerd/dork I ever met, his dad was a scientist. I love playing with the idea that this is who he grew up to be.
I have a couple friends who grew up in Flint Michigan and one of them went to school with Mike and said he used to get bullied by black kids a lot and actually dealt with his fare share of racism being a white kid in a primarily black school.
I can believe it if you different and out numbered any color that happens Specially if you don’t give into trying to be someone your not or standing up for you you are either way have to prove yourself
So did I. My little brother and I were the only 2 white kids in our school and boy was it (not) fun! There were a few Asian kids and maybe an islander, or 2 but that's it. This is how I found out they don't call us "crackers." They actually call white folks "Peckerwood's." *🌠The More You Know*
I'm originally from south Georgia accent and all and when I was in the fourth grade we moved to Sacramento CA where at this school like 75% of the kids were asian and they'd screw with me because I was different but the thing was I was a pretty big kid so I'd just shove them around but they made me go to a different school the next year and that school was primarily black and that's where I had to actually learn how to fight because shoving everyone didn't work anymore some of those kids were just as big as I was I got my ass kicked a bunch of times before I really got a hang of it but I think that's the best way to learn ... trail by fire sink or swim ... it's better to learn young and take a few innocent little ass whoopins as a kid than it is to get really messed up as a grown man
Born in 75’. Riding bikes playing war in woods , drinking out of the water hose. Having boxing matches in each other’s back yard. Going to the neighborhood pool love life.
Perry's a all out legend straight up because he's always been so original as a person. Zero f*cks given. Even when he wants ya to hate him you still love the guy. Who doesnt want to see Platinum have success wherever he goes? Not many
You’re damn right son. Mikes African crown was actually stolen by bandits and he fought 76 double OGs to get it back. Not sure how they got it. He got it With ease though so it’s no big deal
It’s really crazy I’m just thinking about how wild it is that we literally rode bikes & walked around the neighborhood as children. Kids just text each other nowadays, instant gratification or denial. No mystery or courage involved having to venture out to ask your friends parents face to to face 😆
Man I was just before the age of cell phones being mainstream. Growing up if someone's parents had a cell phone it was a big deal haha. Didn't get my first phone till I was 17, I never needed or wanted one. We all lived on the same block and rode bikes to grab each other before heading off into the woods to do stupid shit as kids up until about the time we started being able to drive. Those were the days man, so glad I grew up without all the technology..my parents didn't have a TV in the house because they didn't want me filling my head with garbage, only ever watched TV or played video games at friends houses during the winter. I look at my sisters kids now who are basically raised by TV and tablets at the ages of 3 and 5 and it just breaks my heart. I have a 18 month old and he's not growing up like that, camping, hunting, running around in the woods with friends...that's my goal for him luckily I live in a area where that's the norm for kids, can't imagine raising my son in a big city...
Perry's story was real where Theo just went into autopilot comedian schtick, could have got way more out of Perry's if he hadn't flipped to talking about himself.
That’s part of why I love Theo. He’s a smart dude but plays this character so well; so many of the jokes FLY right by people and they just end up confused which makes it even funnier
I'm so glad my childhood neighborhood always had a bunch of kids out playing and causing mayhem. Some of my favorite memories to reminisce on come from those times.
Being a fighter is all about mindset. There’s some arrogance involved. A little confidence, a little crazy, and of course skill. It’s like a pot of chili. A little this, a little that, a dash of that. I’m 42. Been training since I was 17. It’s humbling.
@@abtwopoint0 I've trained on and off for 7 years at an academy but Im taking it seriously now. Consistency is everything. As long as I go professional then I'll be able to die happy
@@-hydro get really really good with the basics then play at what you're good at. That clicked with me since my fundamentals are already pretty solid. Playing at what I'm good at well I still need to find myself as a fighter. Consistency. I'll add simplicity can often be a very powerful thing.
There were like 5 kids in my neighborhood and three of us were a bit wild. Whenever something went down my house was one of the first three places the police stopped. Good times but I never want to go back.. Anyone know when Mike next fight is? Otherwise I will just look for myself.
No one going to say anything about the cops beating his dads ass while he in the backseat probably cuffed 🤣 that is so funny to me lol times were different back then
@@travistaylor4342 it actually was the case. He’s spoken about it before. He grew up in flint Michigan. There’s actually a comment in the section below about someone who grew up with mike there.
@@barryholiday8998 people just need to calm down with all the racism shyt I know it exist but I've lived in South Carolina my whole life and have never not one time seen someone discriminated against bc of there race and I'm in freaking south Carolina in a trailer park 😂we all get along fine in the south
As mad as this is.. being a dad this hurts a part inside me.. to even think my kid would witness me beating on someone is a thing of nightmares. Feel like it turns me into a monster in their eyes and anyone who might say otherwise didn’t witness violence like this as a kid nevermind with their parents
My dad's side has some characters. My cousins Billy/Dwayne, thier father(step father) named Gay were tough. White, from Camden NJ in 80/90s. 100s of fights/scuffles. Billy and Dwayne fought an entire barbecue party one time including the dog, was a funny story to hear, they told it with humor. Gay committed unspeakable acts of violence, likely why the twins turned out that way. Dwayne is still alive and looks exactly like my father, which is odd, i mean he looks my fathers twin. Billy, may he rest in peace passed young, may he be remembered for his fighting spirit.
Platinum Mike is a for real Gladiator! You want to throw hands he just don’t care. Seen fight with him he had his nose broken on other side of face, pouring blood and didn’t fucking stop. Dude is a true savage. Had my nose broken and that shit sucks. Mike is a great guy and family man much respect.
hes right back in the late 80s and 90s we ran the streets always stealing fighting fucking I feel like between the age of 14-22 I lived a whole lifetime of experiences. Now im 43 and my life is boring compared tp that
One of the realest black dudes I've ever seen in combat history
Don’t assume it’s gender- you bigoted xenophobic rayciss!!!!!

Was looking through comments to see if anyone else picked up on that 😂
0:50 had me rofl
his dad was old as shit I think he needed that male figure
Well, his dad was 70 so it prolly sounds wild to him.
Yeeeehhhhhh Hahaha... He meant it, i felt it! lol!
I love how Theo explained his childhood as crazy as he could and platinum was just like yea i know man 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Right?
everyone being outside shirtless and riding bikes are a lost art of civilization that we'll never get back
Lol 👍, we can bring it back but it's winter in Australia atm...
U ever been to a a park nigga ?
Clearly you have never been to a council estate in England in the summer

That is not something that has died out and I don’t know why you’ve acted like it has 🤣

Can only imagine how wild Perry’s dad is considering how his son turned out lol
From the 70s no less lol
He's a badger
I want to know how his son turned out respectful and humble most of the time, not to mention successful.
Theo was not appreciating the truth Mike was saying.
Not as wild as your mother I’ll tell you that much
considering he bites noses off on a whim, go from there
"Thinking he was in regular education" by far the best line 😂 2:17

😂
Never assume a person is mental.
2:18 LMFAO Theo’s story was great as it was but Mike nodding in agreement makes it even better
Lol..that is the perfect summary.

“He’d duck out of it?”

“It probably stung a little, but that’s a good story…”. 😂😂
This is the most perfect title to a video. As an mma fan, you read the title and you go, "Yup, sounds about right"

The part with the night sticks was fucking priceless
Perry is what Theo would be if all his stories were true.
Perry said, "One time we fought the whole block," so nonchalant you would think he was talking about tying his shoe laces.
There were like 5 kids in my neighborhood and three of us were a bit wild. Whenever something went down my house was one of the first three places the police stopped. Good times but I never want to go back..

busters tho?

They turned into an alley and beat him with their nightsticks...good story man, HOLY CRAP this due is crazy
I can picture this so well
This is the most Mike Perry story of all time
The dude with the cement arms 🤣🤣🤣
knocking on your friends door... r.i.p

They're making a new "Blade" movie. Mike Perry's playing Wesley Snipes body double
That said a lot and its sad.
