Bareknuckle boxing star Mike Perry has offered to be the back-up fighter if either Jake Paul or Nate Diaz pull out of their fight in August.
The BKFC fighter was once a middle-of-the-road UFC fighter, but has emerged as one of the biggest breakout stars of his new sport's biggest promotion. He is currently riding a four-fight winning streak which includes scalps of former middleweight world champion Luke Rockhold and top Bellator welterweight Michael 'Venom' Page.
And perhaps one of his most notable roles was back in February when he was named as the official replacement opponent for Paul's trip to Saudi Arabia if Tommy Fury were to pull out. The Brit had already missed two bouts with his rival due to injury and visa issues, and when he skipped the launch press conference for the event Perry emerged as a potential replacement for the event.
