Michael ‘Venom’ Page Leaves UFC After Contract Expiration
Michael ‘Venom’ Page, a British fighter, is leaving the UFC following the expiration of his contract, as confirmed by UFC President Dana White. Page, 39, joined the UFC in December 2023 on a six-fight contract and concluded that deal with a fight on Saturday in Paris, where he faced booing from the crowd.
He holds a 5-1 record in the UFC, competing in the welterweight and middleweight divisions, with all five victories coming via decision. Despite his interest in continuing with the UFC, Page was removed from their rankings after the fight.
Dana White stated, “That was his last fight on his contract. I don’t think we’re signing him, no,” clarifying that Page would not be re-signed and would be taken out of the rankings.
As a free agent, Page may consider joining a rival promotion like the PFL or transitioning to boxing, with Jake Paul expressing interest in bringing him into boxing.
