Mike Perry has proven himself to be the undisputed king of the bare-knuckle boxing scene. At BKFC 56, he defeated UFC veteran Eddie Alvarez via 2nd round-corner stoppage. After the match, he made an appearance on The MMA Hour, hosted by Ariel Helwani. Furthermore, he went on to talk about a potential fight with Dillon Danis at BKFC.
Mike Perry started the conversation by acknowledging the callout made by Dillon Danis towards him. “I appreciate the attention he could bring to it,” said Perry. Furthermore, ‘Platinum’ Mike claimed that Danis brought some attention to his King of Violence belt when he said that he liked the belt.

Furthermore, when Ariel asked Mike Perry if Dillon actually wanted to do it, he had an interesting response. “I don’t know it’s once in all for hits his table,” said Perry. Furthermore, he explained that BKFC head, David Feldman can give a decent amount of paycheck for ‘El Jefe’. “David Feldman is no joke, you know what he said to Conor, he’s like dude I’ll give you any amount of money you want, and probably the same thing goes for a Masvidal and maybe a little bit for a Dillon Danis,” said Mike.
He went on to praise Dillon Danis for the toughness he showed against Logan Paul. Perry claimed that even though Logan outboxed Dillon, he never stopped putting the pressure on ‘The Maverick’. Furthermore, he gave Danis the benefit of the doubt for his unacceptable boxing performance. He claimed that it might have been difficult for him to adjust to the boxing gloves.

Furthermore, Perry said that he would be ready to take on all the social media banter that Danis has to offer. “If he is interested then he would start talking that vulgar stuff to me and get billions of views on social media…I’m down for that,” said the undefeated bare-knuckle fighter. Let’s wait and see if Dillon will actually accept this fight or not.
It looks like BKFC’s ready for Conor McGregor with a blank check. However, it would be fascinating to see what amount they would be willing to pay Dillon Danis.
BKFC roasts Dillon Danis for challenging Mike Perry in a bare-knuckle fight
Dillon Danis is well known for his unmatchable social media antics. Recently, he took to X and called out Mike Perry for a bare-knuckle fight for the King of Violence belt. He posted photos of himself and Perry facing off during the promotion of his match with Logan Paul.
The caption for the post reads, “Let’s do it bare knuckle for the belt f**k it.” However, in an unexpected turn of events, BKFC showed no mercy to Danis as they responded to his post.

The X account of BKFC responded with a clip of Michael Jordan saying, “Stop it. Get some help”. This particular clip is used as a meme to make fun of cringe or to express disapproval. This was quite an unexpected jab thrown by the bare-knuckle boxing promotion.
However, this also means that they are not interested in this fight. Furthermore, they might be looking to have a big match between Mike Perry and Conor McGregor instead. On the other hand, Dillon Danis has yet to respond to this savage roast from the BKFC. Are you interested in a fight between Mike Perry and Dillon Danis? Let us know in the comments section.
