BKFC KnuckleMania 4 salaries: Mike Perry leads event payroll with 6-figure purse
Mike Perry led the disclosed payroll for BKFC KnuckleMania 4, cashing a $600,000 purse for his main event bout against Thiago Alves on Saturday.
Generally regarded as the face of bare-knuckle boxing, Perry needed just 60 seconds knock out Alves in BKFC KnuckleMania 4’s headliner. Alves earned $200,000 in the losing effort.

Perry and Alves were among five total fighters who cashed six-figure purses at BKFC KnuckleMania 4, joining the likes of UFC veteran Ben Rothwell ($150,000), BKFC heavyweight champion Mick Terrill ($100,000), and BKFC two-division champion Lorenzo Hunt ($100,000).
