For the BKFC champ, who will take a knee  

Then we will go to Ireland and take McGregor’s equity”

With the delay of the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson bout, ‘The Problem Child’ is keeping it real by scheduling the bout with Perry.

Perry has 5 wins and 0 losses in the ring since joining BKFC.

Paul, in a statement to ‘ESPN’ shared:

“When Paul vs. Tyson was rescheduled, I knew immediately that I wanted to still fight on Saturday, July 20. Now, as I prepare for my fight against Iron Mike, there’s no better opponent for me than Mike Perry. He’s a proven knockout artist who has shown to be a maniac in and out of the ring.”

Continuing, Jake Paul aka ‘Titanium’ said:

“This is the perfect experience for me to gain in advance of facing Mike Tyson. But getting that experience comes with risk. Those who know me know I’m a risk taker, and while ‘Platinum’ Perry might try to end me, I’m Titanium Jake Paul and I fear no man.”
