Ahead of his return at UFC Saudi Arabia this weekend, Michael Venom Page has dismissed the skillset of current middleweight kingpin, Dricus du Plesis — claiming beyond being a “tough guy”, the South African gold holder is far from special.
Page, a former Bellator MMA title challenger, makes his third Octagon appearance this weekend in Riyadh, co-headlining the promotion’s return to the region in a high-stakes pairing with the highly-touted, Shara Magomedov.
And making an impromptu middleweight move, British striker, Page has been sidelined since last summer, where he featured at UFC 303 during International Fight Week, suffering a one-sided unanimous decision loss to Irish contender, Ian Garry.
