Paul Daley claims that his fight with Michael “Venom” Page at Bellator 216 does “nothing” for him.

The pair will face off in the first round of Bellator’s welterweight tournament. Whoever is crowned the winner will also receive $1 million. Speaking at the Bellator 216 press conference, Daley said a fight with Page does nothing for him, except getting him one step closer to the grand prize (via MMA Fighting):

“It does nothing for me, really,” Daley said. “It just puts me a step closer to the million dollars, it dispels the illusion a bit, but other than that it really does nothing.”

Daley has lost three of his last five fights inside the cage. His last appearance was a unanimous decision loss to Jon Fitch at Bellator 199 in May. As for “MVP”, he’s currently undefeated in his mixed martial arts (MMA) career. Of his 13 career wins, Page has finished 11 of them.

Lethal Bellator welterweight Michael “Venom” Page just competed in an MMA cage at May 25’s Bellator 200, but that didn’t stop him from picking up a second straight knockout in boxing.

After finishing longtime vet David Rickels via brutal retirement, the flashy British star has an unbeaten 13-0 record in MMA, and he improved to an undefeated 2-0 in boxing today. The rising star made his boxing debut in October 2017 with a third-round TKO of Jonathan Castano.

Taking on Michal Clach in a light heavyweight bout from York Hall in Bethnal Green, London, United Kingdom, Page knocked Clach down in the first round and then stopped the fight with a missile-like right hand at the very start of the second frame.

Highlights: MVP Forces Verbal Submission From David Rickels

Watch Michael Venom Page make David Rickels verbally submit:

The post Highlights: MVP Forces Verbal Submission From David Rickels appeared first on LowKickMMA.com.

The biggest knock on Bellator welterweight prospect Michael “Venom” Page has been the level of competition he’s faced thus far, but MVP made a huge leap forward on Friday after dispatching David “The Caveman” Rickels in the second round of today’s (May 25, 2018) Bellator 200 from the SSE Arena in London, England.

MVP dominated the first round, nearly landing a spinning head kick towards the end of the first, which Rickels deflected and taunted the notorious show-boater for missing the kick.

Rickels is by far the biggest win in MVP’s career, and “Venom” destroyed “The Caveman” to the point where Rickels verbally submitted early into round two after taking a big punch that hurt his eye, rendering him unable to see:

When asked who he wants next by commentator and former MMA referee “Big John” McCarthy, MVP was nonchalant and stated that he wants to fight “everyone”. Fights with fellow British striker Paul Daley and current Bellator welterweight champion Rory MacDonald have been simmering for quite some time now, so MVP has some interesting options as far as future Bellator opponents go.

Who would you like to see MVP fight next?
