Mike Perry calls for bare knuckle fight with Sean Strickland show us the money UFC

Taking in last night’s UFC Vegas 76 headliner between Sean Strickland, and Abusupiyan Magomedov – former promotional welterweight contender, Mike Perry has called for organizational president, Dana White to sanction a bare knuckle fight between himself and the polarizing, Strickland.

Perry, a former welterweight contender under the banner of the UFC, has so far enjoyed a stunning three-fight promotional-perfect run with the BKFC (Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship) since landing with the David Feldman-led promotion last year.

Debuting with a unanimous decision win over The Ultimate Fighter alum, Julian Lane, the surging Flint native, Mike Perry would then land an overtime decision win over former Bellator MMA welterweight title challenger, Michael Page in a summer event in London.

And earlier this year, Mike Perry turned in a hugely-impressive win over former undisputed UFC middleweight champion, Luke Rockhold, forcing a second round TKO win over the Santa Cruz native in Broomfield, Colorado.

And despite noting his interest in a potential future fight with former two-weight UFC champion, Conor McGregor following a face-off with the Dubliner in the ring following his April return, Perry appears to have his interested piqued by a fight with UFC middleweight contender, Strickland.

“Me and Sean Strickland should bare knuckle box,” Mike Perry tweeted. “Show us the money and make it happen @danawhite @bareknucklefc” 

Turning in his second consecutive victory at UFC Vegas 76 last night with his rallying second round TKO win over Magomedov, Strickland had previously landed a unanimous decision win over Nassourdine Imavov in January at the light heavyweight limit – calling for a title showdown with Israel Adesanya since.

“F*ck, man, it just needs to happen, you guys,” Sean Strickland told assembled media following UFC Vegas 76. “We know Izzy (Israel Adesanya) is on f*cking repeat, dude. They [the UFC] try to bring Abus – this is what the UFC said, ‘Man, the middleweight division is stagnant. Let’s get Abus in here. He might beat Sean.’ And I’m like, ‘Yeah right, motherf*cker. Wait until you see what happens.’ Every time they’ve tried to bring new blood – the Frenchie (Nassourdine Imavov) I fought before, I sent him home. This guy, I sent him back. Every time they try to bring new blood in, I send them back. Give me the f*cking title. I earned it.”

“The one before that, I fought the other guy they were trying to [push], their last phenom that they were trying to [push],” Sean Strickland explained. “I took that guy on three-day f*cking notice. I took him on in a five round war and won every f*cking round. I paid my dues. I’ve f*cking paid my fues. Give me that sh*t.” 

Joe Rogan describes rumored BKFC fight between Conor McGregor, Mike Perry as ‘F*cking bananas’

Joe Rogan describes BKFC fight Mike Perry and Conor McGregor as f*cking bananas

With the duo facing off inside the ring at a BKFC (Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship) event back in April, UFC color-commentator, Joe Rogan has claimed a potential future fight between promotional-perfect puncher, Mike Perry, and former two-weight UFC champion, Conor McGregor as “f*cking bananas”.

Perry, a former welterweight contender under the banner of the UFC, departed the promotion back in 2021, before linking up with the David Feldman-led BKFC the following year.

So far boasting an undefeated 3-0 record in the organization, Perry racked up a pair of consecutive decision wins over The Ultimate Fighter alum, Julian Lane, before then defeating former Bellator MMA welterweight title challenger, Michael Page in London last year.

Returning this year in Broomfield, Colorado, Perry landed an eventual TKO retirement win over former UFC middleweight champion, Luke Rockhold in a bloody war for as long at it lasted.

Mike Perry faced off with Conor McGregor in the ring earlier this year

Surprisingly, Perry was met in the ring by Conor McGregor, who was sporting a BKFC championship belt, and reflected on the encounter during a recent appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience.

“He (Conor McGregor) was moving all over the place and I stood my ground,” Mike Perry said. “I stood so still and I couldn’t be wavered or moved. He was moving all over the place. I mean, that says that he was free in that moment to do so, obviously. But, it was me respectfully calling him out, which shows the professional in martial arts that I have been for so many years.”

“How do you call a man out in a sport that he has a family and you guys want to hurt each other and they can honor it in a fair way and promote it to be entertaining?” Mike Perry asked.

As far as Rogan is concerned, however, a future fight between McGregor and Perry under the BKFC banner, albeit unlikely, would be staggering.

“If he (Conor McGregor) decided to do that – if somehow or another they [the UFC] gave him the green light to do that, I can’t imagine how that could ever happen, but if it did – if that happened in a bare knuckle fight, that would be f*cking bananas,” Joe Rogan said.”

“He’s a very good kicker, he can do everything, but if somehow or another he agreed to fight bare knuckle, I mean, Jesus Christ, you know how big that would be?” Rogan explained. “That would be wild. If they did that in bare knuckle, it would be a million pay-per-view buys at least – probably more.” (Transcribed by MMA Fighting)

Conor McGregor faces off with Mike Perry at BKFC 41 teases move I'd be into this UFC

Conor McGregor is open to a potential bare-knuckle brawl with BKFC darling ‘Platinum’ Mike Perry.

The Irishman made headlines after making an appearance at the 1stBank Center in Denver, Colorado for BKFC 41. Taking in the action with a bottle of Proper No. 12, McGregor appeared to enjoy what Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship put on display. So much so that McGregor threw a BKFC title belt over his shoulder and stepped into the squared circle for a showdown with UFC fighter turned bare-knuckle brawler Mike Perry.

Fans of both sports immediately began speculating about a potential crossover clash between the two outspoken icons. During a brief encounter with InsideFighting, Conor McGregor was asked whether or not he was open to a scrap with ‘Platinum’ after their viral face off.

“Why not? I’ve got a couple of fights… I’ve got the [Michael] Chandler fight so that’s what I’m focused on,” McGregor responded.

How exactly that fight comes about is anyone’s guess.

Mike Perry Becomes a Free Agent While Conor McGregor Focuses on Octagon Return

Mike Perry earned his third-straight win under the BKFC banner, taking out former Strikeforce and UFC middleweight champion Luke Rockhold in the BKFC 41 main event. ‘Platinum’ has since revealed that he is officially a free agent, but one would expect Perry to resign with the promotion. It is possible that the UFC could attempt to reacquire Perry’s services given his new-found popularity. That would be the likeliest path to a showdown with Conor McGregor.

As for the Irishman, his focus will be on a return to the win column when he squares off with high-octane lightweight ‘Iron’ Michael Chandler. The two men will first compete as coaches on the 31st season of The Ultimate Fighter, scheduled to begin airing on May 29. Once the season concludes, McGregor and Chandler are expected to strap on their four-ounce gloves for a can’t-miss matchup.
