ByPranav PandeyMixed Martial Arts Journalist

Mike Perry reigns supreme as the true “King of Violence.”

On Saturday night, Perry made his long-awaited return to the squared circle after more than a year away, headlining BKFC 82 at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, where he took on fellow former UFC fighter Jeremy Stephens.

“Platinum” began the first round cautiously and absorbed a heavy right hand from Stephens but managed to weather the storm. In the second round, Perry turned the tide, pressing forward and landing devastating left hands that gradually wore down his opponent.

Perry turned up the heat in the third round, landing a vicious left hand that sent “Lil’ Heathen” to the canvas for the first time. Not content to stop there, Perry dominated the fourth, flooring Stephens twice more, with veteran showing resilience by getting back up each time and continuing the fight despite mounting punishment.
