WEB Sean Strickland and Mike Perry Trade Barbs Over BKFC Fighter Pay
UFC veterans trade barbs over pay
Sean Strickland and Mike Perry, two former UFC fighters, recently traded barbs over pay in the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC). Strickland took to social media to criticize the BKFC's pay structure, saying that fighters were not being paid enough for the risks they were taking.
Perry, who recently signed with the BKFC, defended the promotion's pay structure, saying that fighters were being paid fairly for their work.
The exchange between Strickland and Perry highlights the ongoing debate over fighter pay in combat sports. Fighters have long argued that they are not being paid enough for the risks they take, while promoters have argued that they need to keep costs down in order to make a profit.
The BKFC is a relatively new promotion, and it remains to be seen whether it will be able to sustain its current pay structure. However, the debate over fighter pay is likely to continue in the years to come.
