Michael ‘Venom’ Page teases potential middleweight move to face rising UFC star

Michael ‘Venom’ Page calls out Shara ‘Bullet’ Magomedov for February 185lb fight

In a recent appearance on The Ariel Helwani Show, Page called out Shara ‘Bullet’ Magomedov for a future UFC booking.

“The hairs on the back of my neck went up when I heard Shara ‘Bullet’ call out my boy Izzy,” Page said. “He’s working on regaining that throne, let me jump in! I’m happy to do it. You’re talking about being the best striker, he says in his division, but right now I’m grappling in your division. So why not?

“Absolutely beautiful [UFC 308 win], I really enjoyed that,” Page continued. “And it’s definitely something he’s drilled before…when it comes to striking, I just fear nobody…I bet I get him to try to take me down. He’s going to get panicky in some way, shape, or form. If he doesn’t and just stands with me, I just think it’s going to be an exceptional MMA fight.”

Page went on to say that Magomedov’s February return timeline is perfect and he’d be open to fighting him in Saudi Arabia.

Magomedov defeated Armen Petrosyan with by spinning backfist knockout at UFC 308 last weekend. He’s 15-0 in his MMA career, including the finishes of Michael Oleksiejczuk and Antonio Trócoli.

As of this writing, Magomedov hasn’t responded to Page’s callout. A clash between Page and Magomedov would be a striker’s delight and one of the most exciting matchups the UFC could put together.
