BKFC KnuckleMania 2 press conference video: Mike Perry threatens to hit Julian Lane with baseball bat

"

HOLLYWOOD, Fla. – Bare Knuckle Fighting Championships returns to action on Saturday and hosted a pre-fight press conference to hear from the top athletes on the card.

The main event of Saturday’s event will see UFC veteran Mike Perry and The Ultimate Fighter alum Julian Lane settle their differences inside the bareknuckle ring. During their heated verbal back-and-forth, things nearly escalated to a physical confrontation as Perry pulled out what appeared to be a plastic baseball bat, prompting security to keep the two men separated.

Ultimately, security handled the situation before any strikes were exchanged and Perry could make contact using the bat he pulled from his pants, but the tension between the two is as high as it was when they brawled in the crowd at BKFC Fight Night: Tampa.

Their ringside scuffle in December led to their main event clash atop Saturday’s card, which features two title fights and the highly anticipated combat sports return of former UFC title challenger Chad Mendes.

BKFC: KnuckleMania 2 takes place at Seminole Hard Rocke Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Fla. The main card airs live on the BKTV App at 8:00 p.m. ET following prelims at 6:30 p.m. ET.

Check out the video of their exchanges above.
