Darren till is dead broke and turned down the last big payday of his life🤦‍♂️

[@dixinbuttz44]

you bought that line?

[@JeromeLee-wf8ws]

"Listen, I am not interested " - Till

[@jchilin]

HE IS TERRIFIED. PERIOD

[@Nozylatten]

You need to understand who you are talking about I am friends with Darren. He's in a legal battle with G star raw over his Raw dog beer, so he doesn't want to take any fights incase he loses the court desicion and needs to pay them some money. If he wins a fight they will take it from him, if he says he's bankrupt and makes a side deal lower than the 5 million they want. Then it's over he can fight again and keep all his purse. Stop being disrespectful

Just think how much Mike Perry has changed. He seems happier, more mature and it’s great seeing him achieve and grow so much. He did this the hard way and I wish him all the best in the future!!

[@droo9466]

He did this the hard way ? He clearly didn't. He did whatever he wanted lol

Crazy , if you would’ve asked me years ago who would have the more successful career I would say till in a heartbeat. Really happy for Mike , pure savage.

[@frankflex4465]

that is a terrible sign for Till.Very Very bad sign

[@d.6786]

No chance that Till fights in BK. He’s terrified of fighting Perry and getting KO’d 😂

[@301larussomusic]

You cant blame him tho, a lot of UFC fighters wouldnt do BK

[@d.6786]

@@301larussomusic I don’t but don’t prolong this discussion or pretend that you will eventually fight him. Till keeps saying that he will but it’s clear that he won’t

[@sebastianconstantin5176]

i dont think its the KO. Ko is the easy way out, lol. its the damage he can take in 3 rounds, or whatever he survives :))))

[@rickderrick7101]

I’d hop in the ring w Perry for 2 million. Haven’t trained in years but dude that’s serious cash. I cannot for the life of me understand how or why a pro fighter who trains daily would turn that down.

[@jonkalv7808]

Your not worth it

[@holdsyjr9885]

@@jonkalv7808Neither is Till, but here we are

[@southsidemilly414]

Not like Perry the most technical mf lol it be like a street fight with rules i think anyone even if they don’t got experience would do it for 2 million

[@xxxjules27]

On god.. 2 mil? Sign me uppppp

[@rickderrick7101]

@@jonkalv7808 that’s the whole point. Why in the hell as a Pro would you not take that offer? Till is broke and on a losing streak. I’d bet I have more in my bank account then he does. And I’d still take that offer.

Nothing wrong with calling people cigarettes!!! Always tryna hold a brotha down!!!

masvidal wont do it, he dont need the money so much, plus he getting payed vs nate, who is a punching bag :)))) no risk big reward.

Me personally would LOOVE to see Platinum smash up Jorge... Former bare knuckle backyard fighter.. Current bare knuckle MMA promoter... I mean. 😮😮😮😮

[@Ignas3runner]

Did you really cut him in the middle of shoutout to his sponsors?

[@ryanmcemery354]

There is no way to not like Mike Perry.

Darren vs luke rockhold would be good mma or boxing

[@tylermiller214]

I don’t know how I ever disliked Mike Perry, 10 years ago... Last 5 years I’ve loved the dude. Massive respect to the king of violence

[@mojobazaar]

It's wild because his cognitive thinking sounds like it improved on so many levels! Very insightful guy. He might very well be the realest and most genuine fighter out there. I'm happy for Mike, man. He went through hell and back.

[@Cnaztee]

Till would have to have used half of that money to fix his face after Mike would have broken it 😅

[@user-sz8km9dy5v]

😩👍

[@michaelhauser6440]

Hey, that’s still like $500,000 pocketed after taxes.

How is BKFC able to afford these huge purses? Seems dodgy. If they offered Till 2m how much is Perry getting?

Kind of want to unsub due to the way you cut mike off on his sponsors and then begged for subs...

Pretty disgusting that the UFC or Bare Knuckle didn't put out a video in February for Mike Perry celebrating black history month. They just want to keep a successful black man down.

[@jimbomow6803]

The ufc doesn’t realise anyone wonder why the did Darren till?

[@lookworm_]

Remember when Darren called out Mike and we all thought Till was the next great thang

[@dr.loomis4221]

How can they afford to throw this kind of money around? Is BKFC owned by a billionaire?

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

Sponsors , supposedly he’s sinking it all back in every big card

[@holdsyjr9885]

After sponsors and PPV they make about 5 mil ever time Perry fights. Not too much but good enough to pay the fighters

[@onetumeni2007]

I mean ufc burned money for a minute before it really took off n started making money .

[@PhilSophia-ox7ep]

Most of the fighters are getting 2k to 20k flat. They pay the A side on a major card a lot more than they'd get in the UFC, everyone else gets jack. And BKFC is one of the few promotions outside of the UFC and boxing promoters making money potentially.

[@thesatisfiedcustomer4869]

Great question I don’t understand how the model can afford to make so much money. Most of my mates pay to either watch in person or via PPV UFC or boxing cards I’ve never known one watch let alone pay for a bare knuckle. Maybe it’s a different demographic but I can’t see them being the paying types either.

[@Duct_Tape_Boyz]

Let's go!! Perry vs Till!! 👊💲💲💲

[@mcmays22]

Mike Perry had the craziest arc in the last few years

[@rickstearns1211]

I will ABSOLUTELY fight Perry for $2 million and I’ve never trained in boxing or MMA

[@301larussomusic]

Even Mighty Mouse said he wont do that for 1 or 2 million lol, you can't clown people just cause they wont do it. These guys are already fighters who have stepped in the UFC octagon.

is it just me, or is mike looking more and more like Conner mg

[@JokersVsZombies]

Cigarettes 😂

[@straightslavhussar]

Of course Perry is known for his Ufc fights but in The Ufc Perry would never be the man as he is in Bare knuckle fighting, he has the chin, heart, determination and much more but just doesnt have that extra to be a UFC champ so in my humble personal opinion he is where he will be the man , make the most noise , money and he was built to take shots to his dome so its perfect for him. Ufc is to much technic he is a soldier ready to win or come home on his shield.

[@DonMIFC]

Mike would definitely KO Till in BK but he still shouldve took the fight. Till couldve took the fight and gone down easy. Rockhold did it

[@semlapa9864]

Good to see African king back the show

[@shawnkliewer9987]

Why not challenge sterling, he believes hes is something, he never was or will be.

[@randycantwell1275]

Till dont want it Platinum. Like Till but Big Mikey P is that duude

[@Th3Chuzzl3r]

Should change his nickname from Platinum to "Big Scary" Mike Perry

[@angrybrit129]

If that true daz must have a deal signed with someone as he wouldn't turn down that kind of cash

[@anthonysosa4087]

I don’t believe that. Nobody turns down that kind of money if they don’t got it

[@BrianRonk-ti3jk]

Dude this guy is legit. But bare knockle fighting has literally changed the way this dudes face looks lol.

[@stealpounder]

Darren Till's fighting career is over. Somehow somewhere in time Darrens spirit for fighting had been broken and he can't seem to muster up his will to battle anyone in any kind of combat forum 😢

[@user-gb2qo4my8y]

Mike Perry will destroy alvles

[@Hellhasfrozenover]

Love Mike Perry

[@Disinfo321]

Darren till was extremely close to pulling out with a fake injury in the locker room before the gastelum fight (his words not mine) so he would not fight Perry in bare knuckle unless it’s for 5mil+

[@JD-xm3mg]

Africa STAND UPPP!!!!!
