Michael 'Venom' Page | This One's For The Fans
The One And Only "MVP" Has Made His Name From Being An Entertaining Fighter, And He's Stepping Way Out Of His Comfort Zone For An All-Action Encounter In Saudi Arabia
English welterweight contender Michael "Venom" Page still has designs on a title shot at 170 pounds, but his love of exciting fights has taken him on a weekend break to the middleweight division.
For the first time, Page will compete in MMA at 185 pounds, as he faces Russian knockout artist Shara "Bullet" Magomedov in the co-main event in Riyadh this weekend. It's the sort of fight that immediately begs the question, "why?"
Order UFC 312: Du Plessis vs Strickland 2
For Page, that's an easy question to answer.
