Recent promotional debutante, Michael Venom Page has plans to turn in a “spectacular” finish over the unbeaten, Ian Garry at UFC 303 at the end of next month, claiming he will leave the Dublin striker “sleeping” when they share the Octagon during International Fight Week.

Venom Page, a former Bellator MMA welterweight title challenger, made his long-anticipated bow in the Octagon back in March, turning in a one-sided unanimous decision win over Riverside contender, Kevin Holland in his first organization clash.

As for Garry, the unbeaten Portmarnock striker has been sidelined since the month prior, remaining undefeated in a split decision win over Geoff Neal at UFC 298 in February.

And slated to meet next month in the co-main event of UFC 303, Venom Page takes on Garry in a high-stakes pairing at the welterweight limit, vowing to hand the Dubliner his first professional loss – in devastating fashion to boot.

“The game plan is pretty straightforward if I’m being honest,” Michael Venom Page told Michael Bisping during a recent interview. “And I don’t think it does anything for him (Ian Garry) even if he heard this: piling on a lot of pressure, because he doesn’t seem to work well off his back foot. And he will feel that pressure, mixed with that frustration. And it’s gonna make him – some point in that fight, dart forward at the wrong moment.”

“And that’s when something big happens,” Michael Venom Page explained. “I’m drilling quite a few things, that if any one of those lands – nobody’s gonna be talking about the Conor (McGregor) fight [against Michael Chandler in the main event]. [Garry will be] sleeping, good night.”

Improving to 14-0 as a professional back in February of this year, Dublin striker, Ian Garry turned in a close split decision win over Texan striker, Geoff Neal – remaining unbeaten in the Octagon since his landing three years ago.

As for London Shootfighters staple, Page, the former Bellator MMA title challenger finally made good on his long-anticipated move to the UFC back in March in Miami, landing in the Octagon with aplomb – courtesy of a one-sided decision win over Kevin Holland.

And himself hoping to secure a showdown with incumbent welterweight challenger, Leon Edwards in the future with another couple of high-profile victories, Page expressed a candid interest in a fight with Portmarnock striker, Ian Garry following his debut win at UFC 299.

“I don’t actually care when the fight is, I can do it next week,” Michael Page explained. “I can do it the week after. I don’t mind. I’m just saying it made more sense for the U.K. He’s Irish, I’m English, on the U.K. card. It’s going to be a big card, it would be a great fight. I think he likes to just hang on the back of people’s coattails. So he sees Conor McGregor and gets excited.”

“I’d fight him next week,” Page continued. “If I have a lose ‘X’ amount of weight for that fight, I’ll do it next week. It’s not a problem. I think he misunderstood what’s actually going on. I think he understands I’m dangerous. I’ve never actually met him. I never like to judge too much from a distance, but he inspires me to get in shape because he just has an annoying air about him. If there was any motivation needed, it’s just him talking.” 

Garry’s addition to UFC 303 alongside Page adds to a stacked card in Nevada – which is headlined by a huge welterweight fight between former two-division champion, Conor McGregor, and Michael Chandler.
