Mike Perry | Esther Lin

Mike Perry vs. Conor McGregor? At least one of them thinks the fight is bound to be booked.

In a preview clip for an upcoming documentary produced by Dirty Boxing, Perry is shown expressing his ire for McGregor when the UFC superstar’s name is brought up. McGregor and Perry are both key members of BKFC, with Perry being the bare-knuckle boxing promotion’s most popular fighter and McGregor a part-owner, but they’ve rarely seen eye to eye.

Following Perry’s loss to Jake Paul in a boxing match this past July, McGregor went as far as to tweet that Perry was “fired” from BKFC. At the mention of a possible fight with McGregor, Perry didn’t mince words.

“That needs to happen.”

Perry rose to prominence as a member of the UFC roster with his brash personality and impressive punching power, though he parted ways from that promotion in 2021 with a 7-8 record. He hit the ground running when he joined BKFC later that year, defeating Julian Lane, and then rattling off consecutive wins over Michael Page, former UFC champions Luke Rockhold and Eddie Alvarez, and most recently Thiago Alves.

With each victory, “Platinum” has gained even more popularity, which makes him even more annoyed that McGregor has been stealing his shine.

“What’s making me mad is everybody sucking his balls,” Perry said. “Like he’s already fought for them. Like, ‘Hi, did y’all forget that I’m the reason y’all are pumped up right now?’ I fought five times for y’all, and and you all ain’t showing me no [love].”

Perry also took a shot at BKFC 175-pound champion Dave Mundell for sharing a picture of himself with McGregor on social media. The two are are old rivals from their MMA days, with Perry owning a knockout win of Mundell from 2016.

“And then Dave Mundell posting shaking Conor’s hand, like, you sucking it, bro,” Perry said. “So I knocked you out twice, you bum. Yeah, you heard me.”

The first episode of the Down & Dirty documentary premieres Friday at 2 p.m. ET on the Dirty Boxing YouTube channel. Watch a trailer for the six-part series below.
