Douglas Lima: Michael Page should stop ‘hand-picking’ fights and challenge high-level opponent to earn rematch
Bellator Douglas Lima stopped Michael Page in the Bellator welterweight grand prix semifinal.Michael Page hasn’t yet convinced Bellator welterweight champ Douglas Lima he deserves a crack at the belt.
“The Phenom” Lima dismantled Page via second-round knockout in May 2019, five months before he reclaimed the Bellator title. He is now preparing to defend it once more against Yaroslav Amosov in the main event of Friday’s Bellator 260 in Uncasville, Conn.
Page has been calling for a rematch against the only man to ever beat in MMA for years, and Lima gives him a piece of advice on how to really earn it.
