“He's up against a little boy.” McGregor sarcastically commented on the Perry vs. Jake Paul fight

Legendary UFC fighter Conor McGregor has spoken out about former UFC fighter Mike Perry's upcoming fight against blogger and boxer Jake Paul.

“Look at what happened with Mike Perry. You know this is one of our big stars in the sport. The king of violence, as he calls himself.

He's risen in fights. Now he's facing a little weak-kneed kid in a fight this weekend, and we're all rooting for him. But, you realize this is the real deal,” Conor said.

Perry and Paul are scheduled to fight at Boxing Night on July 20.

Jake Paul was originally scheduled to box against Mike Tyson at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, in the main event of the card, which will be streamed on Netflix. However, the anticipated fight will not take place due to health complications for “Iron Mike”.

Earlier, Perry recorded a formidable address to his future opponent. Perry recorded a video from the ring. On it, Mike beats his sparring partner.
