Bellator 144's Michael Page: I want to take what Anderson Silva did for MMA and do even more

"Venom" welcomes the praise from media and mixed martial arts (MMA) fans, but is ready to write his own legacy in the sport after dominating the European kickboxing scene.

Comparisons to mixed martial arts (MMA) legend Anderson Silva haven't necessarily inflated the ego of Michael Page (8-0). Instead, they've fueled his desire to write his own chapter in the sport.

The rambunctious and often unorthodox Bellator talent has quickly turned heads, causing the promotion's shot-caller Scott Coker to get all giddy inside, because of his fast-rising prospect's unmistakable charisma and flamboyant antics inside the Decagon.

"In my eyes, I know I'm going to be one of the biggest names in MMA and that's going to be because of the dominance I know I'll be able to do," Page told MMAmania.
