In the wake of Sean Strickland's recent comments about low pay in the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC), Mike Perry has taken to social media to voice his own concerns. Perry, a former UFC welterweight, recently signed with BKFC and is scheduled to make his debut in the promotion later this year.

In a series of tweets, Perry called out BKFC for its low fighter pay. He also accused the promotion of not providing adequate healthcare and insurance for its fighters. Perry's comments have been met with mixed reactions from the MMA community.
Some fighters have supported Perry's stance, while others have defended BKFC's pay structure. BKFC has not yet responded to Perry's comments.
Strickland's Comments
Strickland's comments about BKFC fighter pay came in an interview with MMA Fighting. Strickland said that he was offered a "disrespectfully low" amount of money to fight in the promotion.
Strickland's comments have sparked a debate about fighter pay in the BKFC. Some fighters have said that they are happy with the pay they receive, while others have said that they believe they are underpaid.
The Future of BKFC
The BKFC is a relatively new promotion, and it is still trying to establish itself in the MMA landscape. The promotion has been criticized for its low fighter pay, but it is also known for its exciting and brutal fights.
It remains to be seen whether the BKFC will be able to address the concerns of fighters like Perry and Strickland. If the promotion is unable to do so, it could face challenges in attracting and retaining top talent.
