With one fight left on his deal, scrutiny of UFC support, matchups rises.

Overview

  • Page disclosed he has one fight remaining on his UFC contract and said he wants to re-sign with the promotion.
  • UFC commentator Jon Anik said Page can win a title with the right matchups and questioned how invested the UFC is in him.
