‘Platinum’ Mike Perry has proposed a wild idea for the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship.
The former UFC fighter and current middleweight at the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship has called out former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland, celebrity boxing superstar Jake Paul, and internet personality Bryce Hall to a boxing match.
In a post shared to X, Perry called out the three to join him in a series of boxing matches to determine who is the best boxer between them. He said he doesn’t care if the bouts will be fought with or without gloves.

While Perry did not expound on his proposal, Platinum seemed to be interested in fighting the three in a series of boxing bouts.
Strickland has been linked to Jake Paul and Bryce Hall after beating up social media influencer Sneako in a sparring session. Paul and Hall were among those who reacted negatively after “The Psychopath” mauled Sneako in what was supposed to be a friendly spar.
What made it worse for Sneako was that Strickland didn’t stop even when the corner threw in the towel.
Although Sneako was never able to launch his offence, he showed tremendous durability as he never went down despite Strickland unloading what looked to be his biggest punches. The internet star, however, ended up with a bloodied nose.

Both Jake Paul and Bryce Hall have since called out The American Psycho and Strickland seemed to accept bouts against both men. Now here comes Platinum Perry.
Perry last fought in the BKFC ring last December 2 when he knocked out former UFC lightweight King Eddie Alvarez in the second round at BKFV 56. After leaving the UFC due to an unsuccessful campaign, Perry has looked very comfortable in bare-knuckle boxing, winning all of his five assignments at the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship promotion.
Platinum has been baiting Jake Paul for a fight for a couple of years now but to no avail. Perhaps luring Strickland to an event where Paul can also fight the former UFC middleweight king.
Meanwhile, Strickland has had a busy schedule since losing the UFC middleweight title to Dricus Du Plessis at UFC 297 in a disputable decision. Days after the loss, Strickland spent time snowboarding at a Las Vegas resort. He also met with former U.S. President Donald Trump during the latter’s Nevada Caucus victory. Then came that controversial sparring session against Seako.
Most recently, Strickland exchanged messages with Jiu-Jitsu star and Bellator middleweight Dillon Danis. After Strickland threatened to ‘murder’ Danis a couple of years ago, the two seemed to agree to train together in Vegas.
Although Danis reacted to Strickland’s last message with a heart emoji, it remains to be seen if he will be brave enough to take up Sean’s offer, especially after watching Seako bloodied and bruised after a friendly spar.
