It would seem like Perry has a target in mind for his next fight, but this one would be a backyard brawl and said target would be actor Michael Jai White.
The issues between the two apparently arose when White posted a video on Youtube about the late Kimbo Slice not being able to understand techniques being taught to him by White.
“I told Kimbo I’d teach him some pointers, the same way I’ve done with a lot of champions in the past.” White said in the video (via Badar Raja of Bloody Elbow). “Kimbo became a little too frustrated with the process. He was still a little too freaked out and felt dominated. And sometimes that messes with a fighter’s psyche.”
Perry, not happy with White had said, would take to Twitter to issue a challenge to the action film star:
An actor recently was saying how he was trying to teach kimbo something too difficult for kimbo to grasp. I think you actors better stay in the movies. 1 knee make your nose look like special effects

I just feel like #KimboSlice would beat the fuck outta @MichaelJaiWhite and his tone in the video really bothered me. He should fight me backyard bare knuckle because I would like to learn this “prison movie technique” he was talking about #PPV #Or #For #Free ----

White, seemingly not impressed by Perry's call out, would issue the following response through Twitter:
Maybe if MP learned my “Prison Movie Technique” he wouldn’t be ranked #20?--I got no time for playground callouts Brother but holla when you come thru and maybe I’ll have time to give you a personal demo. Just DM me Bro. It really ain’t that hard! https://t.co/kxKdE5BTzO
