Thiago Alves is down to spice up the bareknuckle boxing world once again, under the right conditions.
Alves, a former UFC title challenger and BKFC middleweight champion, is interested in fighting Mike Perry or Eddie Alvarez in the BKFC ring if the offer is right.
“That was the fight that I was told I was going to get, but it never really happened – I don’t know why,” Alves told MMA Junkie when asked about Mike Perry. “If that’s something they want to make happen, I’m here. I know he’s out of his contract as well. I don’t know what’s going to happen with that. I know he’s got a lot of options and offers on the table.
“So we’ll see, I’d like to fight Eddie Alvarez also. He’s s good name. If Perry doesn’t want to do it, Eddie Alvarez would be a good fight as well. But again, I’m open. If it makes money, it makes sense. If not, I’m ok with it.”
