Michael Page’s Next Move: Five Dream Fights for the English Kickboxer

Discover the five dream fights for Michael Page, the English kickboxer, as he looks to make his mark in his next promotion. Exciting matchups await both within and outside of Bellator.

Since bursting onto the Bellator scene in 2013, Michael Page has become a fan favorite with his thrilling performances. Now that he is no longer under contract with Bellator, fight fans are eagerly anticipating his next move. Here are five dream fights for Michael Page, both within and outside of Bellator.

1. Michael Page vs. Stephen Thompson

Stephen Thompson, also known as "Wonderboy," shares many stylistic similarities with Page. Both fighters have successfully transitioned from karate black belts to MMA careers. Thompson, a top 10 welterweight in the UFC, has shown vulnerability against high-level grapplers. This fight would be a clash of striking styles and a chance for Page to showcase his skills against a veteran opponent.

2. Michael Page vs. Michel Pereira

Michel Pereira gained attention with his acrobatic fighting style, but has recently adopted a more conservative approach. However, a fight with Page could bring out the flashy risk-taking Pereira we once knew. This matchup would be an exciting display of athleticism and creativity.

3. Michael Page vs. Kevin Holland

Kevin Holland is known for his entertaining fights and charismatic personality. A matchup between Page and Holland would not only deliver in the cage, but also in the pre-fight build-up. Both fighters have a flair for the dramatic and can generate buzz with their trash-talking abilities.

4. Michael Page vs. Raymond Daniels

Raymond Daniels and Page have a history as kickboxers, with Daniels holding the advantage in their trilogy. While they never faced each other in MMA, their striking skills and highlight-reel moments make this matchup intriguing. With Daniels now in Karate Combat, it would be a great opportunity to bring Page on board for a showdown.

5. Michael Page vs. Anthony Pettis

Anthony Pettis, a former UFC and WEC lightweight champion, has recently found success in the boxing ring. Given Page’s interest in boxing, a matchup between the two would be an exciting crossover event. While it may not carry the same weight as it would have in the past, it would still be a thrilling encounter between two experienced fighters.

These five dream fights offer a variety of styles and challenges for Michael Page as he looks to make his mark in his next promotion. Whether it’s in Bellator or elsewhere, fight fans can expect more thrilling performances from the English kickboxer.
