Robert Whittaker critiques Michael Page after his UFC fight in Paris

Michael Page secured a decision victory over Nursulton Ruziboev on September 5 at The Accor Arena in Paris. The middleweight win marks his fifth victory in six UFC appearances since joining the promotion in 2025. Despite his record, reports indicate Page is currently out of the official rankings and may be nearing the end of his UFC tenure. Robert Whittaker commented on the performance, noting that while Page is an effective fighter, his point-based style can be difficult to watch. Whittaker remarked that Page exhibits an uncanny ability to judge how he is scoring with officials in real-time, allowing him to exert just enough effort to win rounds. Page is now entering free agency, leaving his future status with the promotion uncertain.
