Michael Page is questioning his treatment by the UFC, especially after his UFC London booking. Page, known for his dynamic fighting style, is set to face Sam Patterson at the O2 Arena in London on March 21. While he had been eagerly awaiting a fight since his victory over Jared Cannonier in August 2025, he's now left wondering if he's being punished by the UFC. During an interview with MMA Junkie, Page expressed his frustration, stating, 'I definitely don’t feel like I’m in good favor with the UFC at the moment.' He further elaborated on his feelings, saying, 'It just feels like I’ve upset somebody.'
Page's frustration stems from his perception of being placed on a less-than-ideal fight card. He believes he deserves a higher-ranked opponent, especially given his recent impressive wins. The UFC's decision to pair him with an unranked opponent has left him perplexed. Page has a 3-1 record under the UFC banner, with his only loss coming against Ian Machado Garry, who is now a potential contender for the UFC Welterweight Championship. His wins include victories over Cannonier, Sharabutdin Magomedov, and Kevin Holland.
