UFC veteran Mike Perry signed a multi-fight deal with Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, the promotion confirmed to MMA Fighting's Damon Martin.

"We're thrilled to bring Mike aboard to our vast stable of exciting fighters," BKFC president Dave Feldman said, according to Martin. "Over the last seven years, he's proven to be one of the toughest fighters in mixed martial arts and his skill set along with his aggressive style works very well for our growing international fan base."

Perry spent the last five years as an MMA fighter in the UFC, where he put together a 7-8 record and picked up notable wins over Paul Felder, Jake Ellenberger, Alex Oliveira, and Mickey Gall.

"Platinum" parts ways with the UFC after losing consecutive fights and four of his last five.

The 30-year-old has become somewhat of a controversial figure in MMA due to various legal troubles, including a 2020 incident in which he punched a man at a Texas restaurant.

Perry's BKFC debut has not yet been scheduled.
