Dana White’s Disappointing Announcement Forces Michael Venom Page to Take a Leaf Out of Conor McGregor’s Book Ahead of UFC Debut

Dana White and the UFC had managed to sign one of the most exciting MMA fighters over the last decade in Michael ‘Venom’ Page. Despite of not being in the UFC, ‘MVP’ has always been under the radar of MMA fans across the globe. So a signing of such a caliber fighter would mean a proper promotion for the fighter. However, that wasn’t the case.

Michael ‘Venom’ Page was introduced with a very nuanced promotional video. UFC journalist Ariel Helwani or ‘The Mediator,’ as some would deem him, did what he does best by trying to get a reaction on the issue from the newly signed UFC welterweight. But to Helwani’s surprise, MVP had a major announcement instead.

Michael Venom Page announces a new channel inspired by TheMacLife

Michael Venom Page is a big name in the MMA world, so a proper announcement for his debut was a no-brainer. However, the promotion has failed to deliver in that regard. But that doesn’t seem to bother the newly signed welterweight as he stated, “We’re going to make noise. it’s all good. They know what I’m working with. They don’t even need to do too much work. Like I said, I got a great team behind me.”

Page went on to reveal his big plans, which took inspiration from Conor McGregor’s ‘TheMacLife’, stating, “I’ve just set up a new channel, shall I say.” He proceeded to give a brief description of the channel by saying, “Similar to like the Mac Life for Conor McGregor, I’ve got the KO show”

“I’m going to be doing some promo videos. Like I’m getting to work. Trust me,” stated Page, as he ended the topic of not getting a proper promotional announcement.

Michael Venom Page is one of the most famous fighters outside of the UFC who has successfully managed to maintain a cult following of his own. Let’s also take a look at his career so far.

MVP’s Career before the UFC

The 36-year-old, Michael Venom Page boasts an impressive record of 21 wins with only two losses, with a 62% finish rate in MMA. However, the stats fail to bring justice to the elusive striking of MVP. Page has also tried his hand in other combat sports, where he performed exceptionally well in most of them.

MVP has had two professional boxing bouts, where he boasts a perfect record of 2-0. Page won 10 freestyle kickboxing world championships, winning his first one at the young age of 12. He correspondingly tried his hand at bare-knuckle boxing against Mike Perry, but was unsuccessful, losing to Perry via unanimous decision.
