British striking talent, Michael Page is set to make his return to action at UFC 319 later this summer, booking a middleweight clash against one-time title challenger, Jared Cannonier on August 16. from the United Center in Chicago, Illinois.
Page, a former Bellator MMA welterweight title challenger, will continue his run at 185lbs later this year, taking on Cannonier after returning to winning ways against the hugely-touted Shara Magomedov back in February at UFC Fight Night Saudi Arabia.
As for Cannonier, the perennial middleweight challenger managed to turn in his first win in three outings back in February to boot, eventually landing a main event fourth round knockout win over Dana White’s Contender Series alum, Gregory Rodrigues.
