At BKFC 56, Mick Terrill became the new BKFC World Heavyweight Champion as Christine Ferrea defended her championship against Rowdy Beck Rawlings.

As always, fans want to know how much money he made defeating the former UFC champion. Let’s take a closer look.
BKFC 56: How Much Did Mike Perry Rack Up Beating Eddie Alvarez?
In this match, Platinum Perry forced two former UFC champions to quit their chairs. Perry doesn’t have a crazy resume like the UFC, which includes eight losses, but he doesn’t seem cut out for naked fights. Given the skill he displays without gloves, it seems like no one will be able to dethrone him with this performance. Alvarez dominated and led Perry in the first round, but Perry showed his class in the second round.
For those who missed the fight, Perry defeated Alvarez by TKO (corner stoppage) at 2:00 of round 2 to win the King of Violence title. We’re talking about the money he earned. There are no confirmed numbers, but you can make an educated guess by looking at their contracts and previous match pay.
In fact, it’s always interesting to see how fighters progress through contract negotiations, and Perry’s reported $8 million contract is a sign of his success and marketability in the bare-knuckle promotion. It is reflected.
He received $250,000 for his last match. However, given that he has become the face of the company, BKFC and Perry’s good salary, and the $8 million multi-fight contract, he could earn around $1 million for this fight over Alvarez. .
Martial arts stories to read:
Alvarez didn’t win the fight, but he’s still doing well financially. He has earned over $600,000 so far and is likely to earn even more from this fight as he is expected to get a better contract with BKFC.
That means Perry and Alvarez could earn between $600,000 and $1 million for this fight. And with David Feldman wanting to play running back Perry against Alvarez in Philadelphia, there’s a chance they could battle again.
