Dillon Danis is preparing for his first-ever boxing match against YouTube and WWE sensation Logan Paul. However, his past history of pulling out of a fight prompted ‘The Maverick’ to keep another fighter as a backup, and that’s Mike Perry. But Danis claimed to have no idea who ‘The Platinum’ was. As such, Perry clapped back at the BJJ Specialist.

Mike Perry is a former UFC fighter, where he fought from 2016 to 2021. Following that, he switched to Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC), where he is undefeated with a 3-0 record. However, he decided to jump into the crossover boxing scene and reminded Dillon Danis who he really was.

Mike Perry is not one to back down from a confrontation. He is a very vocal individual and reminded Dillon Danis who he really was.
