Alright, let’s gab a bit about this Mike Perry fella and how much money he’s been makin’. Don’t know much about fightin’, but I hear tell he’s been gettin’ paid pretty good, ya know?
So, this Mike, he used to be in that UFC thing, right? Fought a whole bunch of fellas, some real tough cookies I reckon. They say he made somethin’ like $1.3 million over 15 fights. Now, that sounds like a lot, but when you do the math, it ain’t all that much per fight. Somethin’ like $87,000 a fight, they say. Still more than I ever seen, that’s for sure.
- UFC Earnings: Around $1.3 million total.
- Average Per Fight: About $87,000.
But then Mike, he went and done somethin’ different. He started fightin’ without them little gloves, bare-knuckle they call it. At first, I thought, “That boy’s crazy! Gonna hurt himself somethin’ awful.” But turns out, he’s makin’ a whole lot more money doin’ it. Must be tough though, punchin’ someone with your bare hands. Lord have mercy.
His first bare-knuckle fight, they say he got somethin’ like $250,000. That’s a whole heap more than he was gettin’ in the UFC, ain’t it? And it just kept goin’ up from there. Heard tell he got $500,000 for another fight, and then even $600,000 for another one! That’s a whole lotta dough, more money than most folks see in a lifetime.
Now, they’re sayin’ he might be makin’ close to a million dollars for this next fight. A million dollars! Can you imagine? Why, with that kinda money, you could buy yourself a whole new house, a fancy car, and maybe even a little piece of land to call your own. Heck, you could probably buy the whole darn town if you wanted to!
They say he fought this other fella, Thiago Alves, and made real good money. Then there was this KnuckleMania 4 thing, where he got the biggest payout of everybody, $600,000 smackeroos! That boy’s doin’ somethin’ right, that’s for sure.
And then there’s this Jake Paul fella. Heard he’s some kinda YouTuber or somethin’. Apparently, these two fought, and Mike made a good chunk of change, maybe $3 million. Though I heard Jake Paul made more, something like $7 million for a fight. Lordy, these young fellas makin’ more money than the bank!
It sounds like Mike’s makin’ most of his money in bare-knuckle fightin’ now. They say his recent payday for one of them fights pretty much matched all the money he made in the UFC. Can you believe that? All them years fightin’ in the UFC, and he makes the same amount in just one bare-knuckle fight. Makes you wonder if them UFC folks was payin’ him enough.
So, how much is Mike Perry makin’ overall? Well, it’s hard to say for sure. But from what I hear, he’s made a good bit in the UFC, maybe $1.3 million. And he’s makin’ a whole lot more in bare-knuckle boxing, maybe millions more. He’s probably gonna hit that million-dollar mark per fight pretty soon, the way he’s goin’. Seems like he’s doin’ alright for himself, that Mike Perry.
It ain’t just about the fightin’ though, is it? It’s about makin’ a name for yourself, gettin’ people to watch you. That’s how you make the big bucks, I reckon. And Mike, he seems to be doin’ a pretty good job of that. Good for him, I say. Everybody’s gotta make a livin’, and if he can make it by punchin’ folks, well, more power to him. Just hope he don’t get hurt too bad doin’ it.
Anyways, that’s what I heard tell about this Mike Perry and his money. Seems like he’s doin’ real good for himself, makin’ more money than most folks can even dream of. Hope he saves some of it though, you never know when the gravy train might stop rollin’. That’s what my old pappy used to say, “save for a rainy day, child.” And he was a smart man, my pappy.
