Mike Perry has reportedly been arrested following DUI

Former UFC and BKFC fighter Mike Perry’s has reportedly been arrested following a DUI, according to several sources.

Mike Perry - the notorious MMA fighter known from both the UFC and BKFC - was reportedly arrested last Saturday after driving under the influence of alcohol, and refusing to sign a citation. His bond has been set at $1,500.

The 33-year old has been fighting for the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship since 2021 - but was apparently banned by Conor McGregor (!) following the former’s loss to Jake Paul last summer.

It is unclear if and when Perry will return to fighting. In a recent interview, McGregor has indicated that while Mike Perry is formally still "fired", the organization is currently negotiating with him regarding a potential return.

BKFC recently posted Perry's full fight with Eddie Alvarez, maybe indicating that they have something in the works.
