Before the fight, McGregor wished Perry good luck and labeled YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul a “little idiot.”
But following Perry’s sixth round loss to Paul, it resulted in a social media rant from McGregor.
And he stated that the BKFC champion was expelled from the promotion,
But Paul, 27, said in his podcast: “Mike Perry, as you were fired by Conor McGregor from BKFC, we will sign you to Betr for a partnership and give you some sort of role.
“We’ll find out what it will be. Betr has a job for you, Mike Perry. We’re just giving him another source of income. He can keep fighting.
“Maybe we can start a podcast with him or something… we’ll find out.”
Paul’s betting company Betr sponsors UFC middleweight Bo Nickal while launching the W line of men’s healthcare with bantamweight champion Sean O’Malley.
The American moved to 10-1 and now heads to his controversial clash against Mike Tyson, 58, on November 15, in Texas.

Perry, 32, is now considering a return to BKFC after speaking out following McGregor’s outburst.
He said: “He has no promotion because he and I own BKFC, so he can’t fire me.
“We can bare knuckle fight, look at me I lost to Jake Paul so why don’t you go fight Jake Paul.
“You can box him with gloves, I think it would be worse than Conor McGregor vs. [Floyd] Mayweather.”
