Nate Diaz to Take on Mike Perry in Highly Anticipated MMA Bout

Nate Diaz is set to face off against Mike Perry in an MMA match on the undercard of the highly anticipated Ronda Rousey vs Gina Carano event, taking place on May 16 at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles. The two fighters will meet in a five-round, 170-pound contest, promising a clash of styles and relentless action that could be one of the most exciting fights on the card. Diaz expressed his enthusiasm for the upcoming bout, stating, 'I'm glad to be back in action. It's time. I've got plans to achieve a lot more in the next 10 years, no matter where it is. Time to set the bar again, so get ready for a new takeover.' A fan favorite, Diaz has previously fought Conor McGregor in the UFC, winning their first encounter before losing the second. Perry, also a former UFC fighter, has lost to Jake Paul, the promoter of this event, in a boxing match. Perry confidently declared, 'The King of Violence returns to MMA! Nate Diaz is going lights out.' The Diaz-Perry fight will be featured on the same bill as Ronda Rousey's comeback against Gina Carano and Francis Ngannou's match against Brazil's Philippe Lins. Nakisa Bidarian, CEO of Most Valuable Promotions, said, 'MVP delivered the most-viewed boxing event since the advent of cable, and now we're set to break records again with the biggest viewership in MMA history with the addition of Diaz vs Perry to Rousey vs Carano and Ngannou vs Lins. This will be a war from the first press conference all the way to the end when one of them has their hand raised. It's an absolutely massive night of fights in Los Angeles on Saturday, May 16, as we continue building some of the biggest global events in combat sports.'
