Michael ‘Venom’ Page is officially out of the UFC after Dana White confirmed that the promotion will not renew his contract. The 39-year-old London fighter secured a fourth straight UFC victory at UFC Paris, but the win was not enough to earn him a new deal. Page’s UFC run ends with a 4-1 record inside the Octagon.The news has already sparked interest from other promotions. Jake Paul, who co-founded Most Valuable Promotions (MVP), appeared to make his intentions clear shortly after White’s comments. Paul hinted that his promotion could make a move for the experienced British fighter.Jake Paul wants Michael ‘Venom’ Page at Most Valuable PromotionsJake Paul has wasted little time reacting to Michael ‘Venom’ Page’s UFC departure. Hours after Dana White confirmed that Page would not be re-signed, Paul took to X with a short but significant tweet.He wrote, “Think it’s time to bring MVP to MVP”.The post immediately caught attention because Page has become one of the biggest free agents in MMA. The initials “MVP” have long been associated with Michael Page. They are also the initials of Most Valuable Promotions, the company founded by Paul and Nakisa Bidarian.Paul’s message therefore appeared to be a direct suggestion that Page could join his promotion. Page became a major attraction during his years in Bellator. His flashy style, unorthodox movement and highlight-reel knockouts helped him build a strong fan following.He later moved to the UFC and made his promotional debut in 2024. His UFC record finished at 4-1. His only defeat came against Ian Machado Garry in 2024.However, all five of his UFC victories went the distance. Page failed to produce a stoppage in his final four fights.His most recent appearance came at UFC Paris. Page defeated Nursulton Ruziboev but was not completely satisfied with his performance.The London fighter was also booed during the contest. It was similar to his previous UFC appearance against Sam Patterson at UFC London.After the Paris fight, Page suggested that the UFC may not have been happy with his performance. He also questioned why he was not given a post-fight interview. The UFC subsequently removed him from its rankings eligibility. White then made the situation clear.“That was his last fight on his contract. I don’t think we’re signing him, no. What’s the confusion? I think it’s been pretty clear that he wasn’t being re-signed, and that he would be taken out of the rankings, because he’s no longer on the roster”, White said during a press conference.Page is now free to explore his options.Most Valuable Promotions could be one of those options. The company has become increasingly active in combat sports through its work with Paul and other fighters.There is also interest from BKFC. BKFC chairman David Feldman has already said he would welcome Page back after their previous connection.Get the latest Sports News and Live updates. Download the TOI app.
