Sharaputdin Magomedov, the undefeated UFC middleweight contender, has expressed his willingness to face Michael ‘Venom’ Page in the octagon. During an interview with Red Corner MMA, Magomedov shared his game plan for the potential fight, stating,
“I’d love to fight [Michael Venom] Page. He’s always ready to go. I attended his fight in Las Vegas [UFC 303]. He’s an interesting guy, or ‘cool dude,’ I should say. It would be exciting… I don’t think I’ll ever throw away my gameplan [turn into a wrestler instead of striking]. He’s the one who’ll find himself on the canvas. So, I’m going to ground and pound him a bit. [But] I’m not going to wrestle with him. I’m going to stick to my fighting style, my plan, like I always do.”
Can Sharaputdin Magomedov Continue His Red Hot Form Against Michael Page?
