Michael Page Says UFC Has No Welterweight Opponent for Expected London Return

Page says a lack of available welterweights is delaying firm plans for his expected London return.

Overview

  • The UFC’s London event is scheduled for March 21 at The O2 with Movsar Evloev vs. Lerone Murphy headlining, and Page says he expects to be on the card.
  • He says repeated requests to fight at 170 pounds have been met with replies that “nobody’s available,” leaving his matchup unconfirmed.
  • Page recounts proposing a newly victorious welterweight for London but was told the UFC already had plans for that fighter.
  • After alternating divisions, he went 2-0 in 2025 with wins over Shara Magomedov and Jared Cannonier at middleweight and now seeks a return to welterweight.
  • He is finishing work on a Road House sequel, which he notes would have conflicted with an earlier camp but aligns with a March timetable.
