Michael "Venom" Page appears to be done with the UFC after finishing out his contract Saturday with a win at UFC Paris.
"I don't think we're signing him, no," UFC CEO Dana White told reporters Tuesday. "I think it's been pretty clear that he wasn't being re-signed."
Page won five of his six bouts in the UFC but failed to deliver a single finish. His fights became increasingly lackluster, culminating in a widely panned decision win over Nursulton Ruziboev in France.
The UFC then sent a memo to its rankings panel that said Page was no longer eligible, fueling speculation that the promotion wouldn't give him a new contract.
The 39-year-old Page starred in Bellator before arriving in the UFC. He debuted in the Octagon at UFC 299 in March 2024, picking up a decision victory over Kevin Holland. He dropped a decision to Ian Machado Garry his next time out, but rebounded with decision wins over Shara Magomedov, Jared Cannonier, Sam Patterson, and Ruziboev.
Page publicly expressed interest in re-signing with the UFC in the weeks leading up to his bout with Ruziboev. The 39-year-old owns a professional record of 26-3 with 13 wins by knockout.
