Mike Perry backed to beat Conor McGregor in potential future BKFC fight: ‘It’d be an absolute banger’

Dan Hardy is backing ‘Platinum’ Mike Perry to beat Conor McGregor in a potential bare-knuckle brawl under the BKFC banner.

Mike Perry earned his third-straight win inside the squared circle on Saturday night, besting former Strikeforce and UFC middleweight champion Luke Rockhold in the BKFC 41 main event. However, what came after the bout is all anyone could talk about on social media.

Following his second-round TKO win over Rockhold, Mike Perry was greeted inside the squared circle by a BKFC title-toting Conor McGregor. The two men engaged in a standoff with ‘Platinum’ showing the former two-division UFC champion a great amount of respect.
