Former UFC fighter calls out Michael Page after reported UFC exit

Derek Brunson publicly called out Michael Page after reports that the English striker fought out his UFC contract, highlighting a possible matchup between unsigned contenders.The callout followed Page's decision win over Nursulton Ruziboev at UFC Paris, where "Venom" was denied a post-fight interview and his low-output performance drew lukewarm reaction.Reports indicate the UFC is set to remove Page from its rankings and is unlikely to re-sign the former Bellator star.Brunson framed the proposal as a meeting of "2 free agents," reflecting his own shift after leaving the UFC in 2023 and competing once in the Professional Fighters League, a decision win over Ray Cooper III.This segment outlines the timeline, parties involved, and current status.
