Mike Perry is definitely down to fight Nate Diaz.
Diaz is the hottest free agent in combat sports after his UFC contract expired following his submission win over Tony Ferguson this past weekend.
Following the win, Diaz spoke of his desire to conquer another sport, and bare knuckle boxing could definitely be an option for the Stockton native.
BKFC president Dave Feldman is unsurprisingly interested in reaching out to Diaz and recently called a fight between him and Perry a dream fight for fans.
Perry is in agreement as he is now targeting only the best fights for himself and Diaz fits the bill.
“Now is my time to make noise. I have no excuses so I’m calling out all the best fights the fans can be interested in. I want to make waves. Been fighting my whole life and I always will no matter what.”

Mike Perry Looking To Continue Undefeated Run At BKFC
Perry has had a great start to life in his post-UFC career.
He is 2-0 under the BKFC banner after wins over Julian Lane and Michael “Venom” Page.
A potential fight with Diaz, however, would be a huge step up both in terms of competition and name value as the former would undoubtedly be the biggest fight of Perry’s career.
Whether it happens remains to be seen as Diaz has many options, including boxing which seems to be the likeliest route for him at this point.
