How much money is Mike Perry making from Jake Paul fight? Most Valuable PromotionsMike Perry has revealed what his payday will be for fighting Jake Paul, as the former UFC star is stepping in for Mike Tyson in July. When Jake Paul\u2019s superfight with Mike Tyson was put on the shelf after the boxing legend suffered an ulcer flare-up, the YouTuber-turned-boxer had a few different fighters throw their hat into the ring to be his replacement, including Ryan Garcia and Amir Khan. The \u2018Problem Child\u2019 also had an interesting offer floated by former UFC star Darren Till, but he eventually landed on a fight with \u2018Platinum\u2019 Mike Perry in place of \u2018Iron\u2019 Mike. Perry actually had an offer to fight Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. on the undercard of the Paul vs Tyson undercard, but that was scrapped. And now he\u2019s stepping up to fight Jake, he\u2019s revealed just how much he\u2019s going to pocket from the fight. \u201cIt\u2019s not bad. It\u2019s right on cue with BKFC. Nothing crazy,\u201d he told Michael Bisping in an interview on his YouTube channel. \u201cI\u2019m hoping the pay-per-view does well and that people buy the show because DAZN be a little pricey out there sometimes. \u201cBut we are out there working for that money so buy the event and I\u2019ll give you the fight you want to see, I\u2019m going to do that regardless. The money is right there with BKFC with me and I\u2019ve already established and set myself and my family up.\u201d Timestamp of 8:20 Perry\u2019s paydays with the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship have been varied, with his last two fights seeing him make $600,000 and $1,100,000 respectively. It was a fight with former UFC champion Eddie Alvarez that saw the former UFC star make seven figures. So, he should be making similar with his fight with Jake. \u2018Platinum\u2019 has also voiced his concern about viewers illegally streaming the fight, so the viewing figures could hamper his final pay cheque if he\u2019s got a cut of the sold pay-per-views.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
