MIKE PERRY has called out Jake Paul and Conor McGregor to a fight under his Dirty Boxing rules.
The former UFC star-turned-bare-knuckle champion last year launched his promotion – which consists of hybrid rules.

Perry’s Dirty Boxing involves bouts using MMA-style gloves with elbows permitted in smaller-sized rings.
The American was beaten in six rounds by YouTuber-turned-prizefighter Paul in their July boxing bout.
But Perry, 33, told SunSport: “It would be a dream match up to have a rematch with Jake Paul over in Dirty boxing.
“You know, see how our styles match up when I get to do a little bit more dirty fighting style in a clean manner which goes with the rules, not against the rules.
“I’m all about the technique and the style. Me and Jake had a boxing match and I would love a chance to redeem that and face him in Dirty Boxing. He’s talked about it as well, so that’s one match up.”
Perry filled in on three weeks notice to fight Paul, 27, after Mike Tyson, 58, pulled out amid a health precution.
Tyson did eventually make it to the ring – after 20 YEARS in retirement – and lost to Paul on points in November.
Perry meanwhile also has his eyes on McGregor, 36, who has not fought since July 2021 when he snapped his leg against Dustin Poirier, 36.

He said: “I was just watching a video of his last fight against Dustin Poirier and he was doing well.
“I mean, his striking is crisp, his hands, speed and all that. I feel like that fight.
“He had like an old school style of kick like UFC we kick the old ways, they kicked the thigh and Conor was doing the thigh kick.
“And nowadays, the game has evolved a bit and all the kicks are to the calf now.
“All the calves are getting kicked, which is I think stopping people from getting that injury that he got.
“Yes, he is talented with his legs, but I know he loves boxing and I think boxing with elbows over here in Dirty Boxing would be a great way to get himself back in the fight and face me.”
Perry’s Dirty Boxing returns for its second event on Saturday in Miami with Yoel Romero fighting Ras Hylton and Andrei Arlovski taking on Terrance Hodges.
And Perry said: “It’s very rough and gritty, it’s very in your face and all action all the time.
“I mean, when I fight, I bring it and now I got huge names fighting under my banner, my promotions banner like Yoel Romero and Andrei Arlovski.
“Two kings of the fight game really and I make myself a third one. Dirty Boxing, it’s here to explode onto the scene this Saturday, March 22nd.”
