Mike Perry has responded to Conor McGregor throwing salt on the wound following a TKO defeat to Jake Paul.

Jake Paul vs Mike Perry boxing

Perry and Paul shared the boxing ring inside Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida this past Saturday night. While Perry showed the heart fans have grown to adore him for, it was quite clear that Paul’s boxing skills were far superior.

“The Problem Child” utilized his jab effectively and seemed to confuse “Platinum” with his movement. Perry was rather flat-footed, but he swung leather until the referee had seen enough of him stumbling following multiple knockdowns throughout the fight.

Mike Perry Fires Back at Conor McGregor Over Post-Fight “Firing”

Conor McGregor, part owner of BKFC, claimed Mike Perry has now been fired from the promotion. The “Notorious” one even took a jab at Perry’s new promotion.

“Hey Mike yore released and you can go and compete in your smelly dirty boxing championship thing, the smell of it, good luck. You’re fired,” McGregor wrote.

During the post-fight press conference following his sixth-round TKO loss to Jake Paul, Perry denied McGregor’s claim and dared “Mystic Mac” to box Paul.

“He doesn’t have a promotion because me and him are both owners of BKFC, so he can’t fire me,” Perry said. “We can fight in bare knuckle. Look at me, I lost to Jake Paul. Why don’t you go fight Jake Paul and box him with the gloves on? I think it would be worse than Conor McGregor vs. Mayweather.”

What’s next for Mike Perry remains to be seen, but despite the loss to Paul he remains an important star for BKFC. While Perry may not get the UFC return he’s looking for just yet, it’s hard to imagine “Platinum” having a difficult time being booked.
