Guess Who Joined The Mile-High Club

Mike Perry should change his nickname from “Platinum” to “TMI.”

Driver: How was your flight?

Perry: It was great for me. I joined “The Club.”

Kudos to you, dear reader, if you make it past that point in Episode 3 of UFC 255 “Embedded,” the promotion’s behind-the-scenes look at select mixed martial arts (MMA) fighters as they prepare for this weekend’s pay-per-view (PPV) event.

Perry, who was originally scheduled to face former welterweight champion Robbie Lawler, will instead throw hands with 170-pound “Dirty Bird” on the UFC 255 main card after “Ruthless” was bounced due to an undisclosed injury.

“I spent years getting ready to come to these fights,” Perry said. “I would bring the nicest clothes and make sure I dressed real nice on the airplane, and every time I got here absolutely nothing was going down. I wasted my outfit, ain’t nobody have a camera on me, so now I just be (expletive) like whatever. It works, this is Mike Perry, it’s like whatever bro.”
