"I think things come full circle all the time. I've continued to work hard before getting the Jake Paul fight. Working hard got me the Jake Paul fight. I worked hard for the Jake Paul fight and I had some setbacks. I continued to work hard, got back in the winner's circle, performed again, and now we're here fighting on MVP again," Petty told TMZ Sports.
Perry returns to MMA on May 16 against the creator of the UFC 'BMF' title, Nate Diaz. The two clash on the Most Valuable Promotions and Netflix promoted Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano fight card. It's been five years since Perry fought under MMA rules. With a win, he'll be eyeing a Paul rematch.
"Jake has mentioned that he'd be interested in fighting Nate (in MMA) if Nate was able to be successful, but, you know, so I'm looking to go out May 16th, give it everything I've got, dominate and see if Jake goes running scared or if he wants to fight an MMA fight. Let's do it," said Perry.
