Michael Page targets middleweight stability ahead of UFC Paris

Michael Page is preparing to face Nursulton Ruziboev at UFC Paris at the Accor Arena. The bout marks a significant moment for Page, as it is the final fight on his current UFC contract.

Page has expressed a desire to remain in the middleweight division, noting that the welterweight class feels congested and offers fewer regular opportunities. While acknowledging the physical challenges of facing a taller opponent like Ruziboev, Page views the 185-pound division as a clearer path for his career.

Reflecting on his tenure with the organization, Page admitted that he and the UFC have not always been aligned and that his run has not yet met his personal expectations. He stated his intention to deliver a spectacular performance to ‘remind the UFC why they brought me to this organization’ and to provide a memorable moment for the fans.
