Fans shut down Dillon Danis after he called out Mike Perry for a bare-knuckle boxing match.
Over the past two years, ‘Platinum’ has become a massive superstar in bare-knuckle boxing due to wins against Julian Lane, Michael ‘Venum’ Page, and Luke Rockhold. On Saturday night, Perry extended his BKFC record to 4-0 by securing a second-round TKO win against Eddie Alvarez.
Perry has solidified himself as a money fight for anyone interested in testing themselves without gloves. As a result, Dillon Danis attempted to capitalize on Perry’s success by calling out the BKFC superstar on Twitter:
“Let’s do it bare knuckle for the belt f*ck it.”

“Bro, holy sh*t. Shit the fu*k up. You have dog sh*t boxing. Logan f*cked you up. And @PlatinumPerry would burry you. So would I too.”

In October, Dillon Danis almost fought Mike Perry in a boxing match. Danis was scheduled to fight Logan Paul, and Perry weighed in as the backup. During fight week, Paul suffered a cut from ‘El Jefe’ throwing a microphone at him, nearly leading to ‘Platinum’ stepping in as a replacement opponent.
When did Dillon Danis last fight?
Despite several close calls, Dillon Danis fought Logan Paul in a six-round boxing match on October 14. The intriguing matchup generated a lot of attention due to Danis’ controversial promoting tactics of verbally attacking Paul’s fiance, Nina Agdal.
Yet, once it was time to fight, Danis underperformed after a nearly four-and-a-half-year layoff. After getting battered throughout the fight, ‘El Jefe’ attempted to secure a guillotine against Paul, leading to him being disqualified and sparking an all-out brawl.
It’s unclear what’s next for Danis, but there’s no doubt he must regain fans' trust when it comes to his fighting skills.
