When Mike Perry joined the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, few could have predicted he’d become the greatest bare-knuckle fighter in the world. From dismantling UFC legends like Eddie Alvarez to Luke Rockhold, Perry has solidified his status as the “King of Violence.” Now, Perry is gearing up for another BKFC tournament, which he envisions as a spectacle inspired by Enter the Dragon.
For those who don’t know, “Enter the Dragon” – like the tournament is a fictional, secretive martial arts competition featuring elite fighters, often with deadly consequences. Inspired by the 1973 Bruce Lee film, it represents a pinnacle of martial arts skill and a test of ultimate strength.
Now, Perry says with a jaw-dropping $25 million prize at stake, he’s ready to take the bare-knuckle world to unprecedented heights. In his words, “If there’s a tournament like enter the dragon for 25m @bareknucklefc I’m in there.”

Mike Perry’s tournament idea may sound wild, but it’s no joke, as it’s set to feature the best fighters in the world. The concept blends chaos and skill, promising a spectacle unlike anything seen in combat sports. Perry, however, is clear about his intentions—he’s ready to take on anyone, anytime, but only if the payday matches the hype. For him, it’s all about securing the big money bag while delivering a show fans won’t forget.
Mike Perry Reportedly Set To Fight Against UFC Legend
Robbie Lawler’s UFC days might be behind him, but a move to Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship could be next. BKFC CEO David Feldman confirmed ongoing talks with the UFC to set up a showdown between Lawler and Mike Perry. “We’re working on it. That’s a sick fight,” Feldman told The Ariel Helwani Show, adding that an update is expected in two weeks.
If Lawler doesn’t sign, Feldman hinted at other options, including Darren Till. Regardless of the outcome, Perry’s next opponent promises to bring fireworks. ‘King of Violence’ has become the face of BKFC, much like Conor McGregor is to the UFC. He’s the promotion’s ultimate cash cow and the dream opponent for every fighter in the bare-knuckle circuit despite the fact that BKFC Boss McGregor threatened to fire him.
