Former two-division UFC champion and part owner of Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship Conor McGregor went off on social media on Saturday following Jake Paul’s TKO win over Mike Perry.
Paul stopped Perry in the sixth round of their DAZN boxing match at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida. Perry, an undefeated BKFC fighter who holds the promotion’s ‘King of Violence’ title, was seemingly fired by McGregor after the loss. McGregor also took aim at Paul, accusing “The Problem Child” of using performance enhancers and fighting smaller opponents.
Paul was McGregor’s first target. “Jake Paul is the biggest pissbag I have ever seen in my life. 40 pound weight difference, juiced out of his head, and still shitting himself in there. Nakisa you should take him to Vegas oh that’s right you could never, the athletic commission testing, real testing, real fighting. B*tch asses. You could never,” McGregor wrote on social media. “And then calling out 60year old Mike Tyson fresh off an in flight medical emergency? I swear to god, a fat can of b*tch piss. Most valuable pissbag.”

Paul was originally slated to face Tyson on Saturday at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas but a medical scare forced Tyson to push the bout back until Nov. 15. In April, it was announced that McGregor and McGregor Sports & Entertainment had become part owners in BKFC.
After admonishing Paul, McGregor then turned his attention to Perry. “Hey Mike youre released and you can go and compete in your smelly dirty boxing championship thing, the smell of it, good luck. You’re fired,” McGregor wrote.

McGregor has two fights left on his UFC contract and is expected to return to the octagon later this year. He was scheduled to face Michael Chandler at UFC 303 last month but was forced out of the fight due to a toe injury. McGregor has been out of action since breaking his leg in a trilogy bout against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in July 2021.
