last fight on his UFC contract<\/a> took place in September when he beat Nursulton Ruziboev to register a fifth win in six fights since making his debut for the organisation in 2024.<\/p>\nDespite his record in the UFC, Page, known as MVP, was dropped by the MMA promotion and is linking up with Misfits Boxing.<\/p>\n
The Londoner has signed a “multi-fight, multi-year agreement”.<\/p>\n
“I’ve been in combat sports for a long time and I’ve had plenty of options, but MF Sports is the right fit for me,” said Page.<\/p>\n
“They’re doing things differently, the energy is huge, and the fights are big. <\/p>\n
“I’m excited for this new chapter, and I’m coming to show the boxing world what I can do. I feel free, shackles are off.”<\/p>\n
Page has won 26 of his 29 MMA fights and is a decorated kickboxer.<\/p>\n
The former Bellator star made his professional boxing debut in 2017 and is 2-0, but has not boxed since 2018.<\/p>\n
KSI, a co-founder of Misfits, announced MVP’s arrival at an event on Saturday.<\/p>\n
“Michael Venom Page is one of the biggest names in combat sports, and everyone wanted him,” said the influencer, musician and former boxer.<\/p>\n
“For him to choose Misfits says everything about where we are as a promotion. He’s a superstar, he’s explosive, and fans are going to love watching him in the ring with us.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Former UFC fighter Michael ‘Venom’ Page says he is “coming to show the boxing world what I can…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":802066,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-802065","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/802065","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=802065"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/802065\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/802066"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=802065"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=802065"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=802065"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
