Conor McGregor Hints That Mike Perry Is Banned From BKFC
Conor McGregor had a further dig at Mike Perry after the latter’s next BKFC fight is still unclear.
Perry has developed a reputation for being one of the biggest stars in BKFC. He joined the promotional outfit after leaving the UFC in 2021 on a poor run of form. Perry lost four out of his last five UFC fights. But he has reinvented himself since joining BKFC. He is undefeated with a 5-0 record, with three wins by knockout.
However, Perry’s brand took some damage when he boxed Jake Paul. During the build-up, Perry promised to hurt Paul. And yet, he was dropped three times on his way to a sixth-round stoppage defeat. After his defeat, McGregor told Perry he was ‘fired’ from BKFC. McGregor is a part-owner of the franchise, although his comments were seen in jest. But McGregor had a further dig once a fan asked about Perry’s future.
See him since? https://t.co/fTtZe8zM7j

Big mistake Connor. The people love @PlatinumPerry. Since you’ll never fight in the @ufc again, why not fight Mike with a contract on the line for him?
