Michael Page is on the verge of getting a welterweight title shot after getting a fifth straight victory earlier this month, “Venom” won his last fight via doctor’s stoppage so it was a TKO victory.
Page is in a good place in Bellator MMA right now and with these victories adding up, things will only get better for him, but he expressed his wish of competing in the UFC one day and testing him against some of the best fighters in the world.
He talked about how he would like to pursue his UFC dream once his Bellator contract expires, on Michael Bisping’s “Believe You Me“, he said, “I enjoy Bellator. I enjoy where I’m at and I enjoy my success so far, but I definitely feel like I need to touch the UFC at some point and just test myself there as well,”
He added, “There are some great matches to be made over there so I definitely think in the future—I don’t know when—obviously I’m contracted to being in Bellator, and I’ve got some goals to achieve there as well. I feel like I’m close to doing that. But until then, I definitely still see myself going [over to the UFC].” (h/t MMAFIGHTING.COM)
“The only reason I got into MMA was to go to the UFC,” says Michael Page
Page talked about how he always wanted to compete in the UFC, and he started doing MMA for this very reason he said, “If I’m being honest, when I first started, the only reason I [got into MMA] was to go to the UFC. That’s the biggest thing and it’s obviously still one of the biggest [promotions].”
“There’s a lot of shows popping up. But in general—especially when I was started—anybody that was getting into MMA, their goal was to get to the UFC. The majority of people are still the same.”
