EX-UFC fighter Mike Perry pulled out a BASEBALL BAT during a fiery Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship press conference.

The former UFC welterweight went face-to-face with opponent Julian Lane on Thursday ahead of their grudge match at KnuckleMania on Saturday night.

Lane repeatedly goaded Platinum during the heated presser

And after being goaded by Lane for the umpteenth, he pulled a bat out of nowhere and said: “What’s up, little b***h?”

Ultimate Fighter season 16 contestant Lane immediately mocked Perry, saying: “You’ve got a bat, b****?

“He needs a bat. What are you going to do with that?

“My peoples already waiting outside to get your a** but I’ve got to make them wait so I can let you get in the ring and get really f****d up.

“So with that bat, you might want to watch yourself when you’re walking out of here, you’re going to play like that.”

Perry, however, lightened the mood by dismantling the bat and showing it was just a prop.

Former MMA fighters Perry and Lane, 30 and 34 respectively, were involved in a viral brawl last December.

The pair clashed after Lane threw an object while Perry was in the commentary booth.

But Platinum insists he has no serious issue with Nitrane, telling MMA Junkie: “It’s just another fight.

“I’m here to handle business, make a paycheck, take care of my family – try to do make jokes, do something funny, spontaneous.
