Conor McGregor has leaked a key detail in Mike Perry's Bare Knuckle FC contract after 'firing' him from the promotion following his defeat to Jake Paul.

Perry, who replaced Mike Tyson, suffered a sixth round defeat to Paul in their cruiserweight bout last night.

But the fight has been questioned by fans who are convinced it was 'rigged' after spotting a damning moment.

After the clash, McGregor took to social media to 'release' Perry from BKFC.

'Platinum' refuted the Irishman's decision as he fired back, turning the situation into an ugly mess.

UFC fighter Terrance McKinney jumped to the defence of Perry and told McGregor that BKFC needs to pay their athletes more to hold onto their talent.

The 'Notorious' saw McKinney's post on X and swiftly responded, revealing that Perry had 'written' into his BKFC contract that he could have one fight outside the company.

"Hey there, no nothing bum, whoever the f**k you are," he wrote. "This was not a big payday whatsoever.

"Bkfc pay way more. This was the personal decision of a dumbass.

"He had written into his contract he could have one fight outside the organisation. This is what he wanted."

McKinney hit back: "Lmfao blah blah blah we all get it you’re a d**khead zzzzz it’s boring I’m just sayin you ain’t gotta ALWAYS be a d**khead sometimes you can be cool and nobody will think less of you. You did what you had to to get the bag but somebody else does it and you’re upset lmao."

Perry, who's now 0-2 in professional boxing, has enjoyed great success under the BKFC banner following his UFC departure.

He has five big wins to his name, including victories over former UFC champions Luke Rockhold and Eddie Alvarez.

McGregor, who hasn't fought in the UFC since July 2021, became part-owner of BKFC in April after striking a deal with founder and president David Feldman.
