Shara Magomedov vs. Michael Page

MAGOMEDOV VS PAGE

I know a lot of people love Shara in this fight, but I am very much on the fence. I might be giving too much credit to a 37 year old old in MVP, but he was also 37 when he smoked Kevin Holland. The only reason he lost to Ian Garry was the takedowns. MVP's speed and range management are insane and very few people have had any success with it. I think he is a great underdog here and will do one final ride picking him. I think while Shara is bouncing around looking for Kicks, MVP could be in and out of the pocket before his good eye figures out what happened.

Shara Magomedov

Shara Magomedov is a comic book villain with one eye, a gap tooth and a homeless beard. He also has incredible striking. He popped onto the scene last year and was touted as a wild and insanely dangerous striker. Sure, he has 15 fights with 12 knockouts, but knockouts have not come as easy at the UFC level. He is insanely powerful, very fast and will mix up his striking techniques. His takedown defense is just ok and his offensive takedowns are non existent. He is coming off the insane double back fist KO win over Armen Petrosyan at UFC 308

Michael Page

Michael Venom Page is a savage striker that has been very successful in Bellator. He is certainly a few years past his prime, but he is still an insanely dangerous striker with a sport karate background. His striking style is awkward and unorthodox, but it is very effective. He is insanely accurate and very powerful. He is very long and uses his range well on the outside before leaping in and working his kickboxing. His takedown defense is just ok and you will not see him attempt any offensive takedowns. He is coming off the decision loss to Ian Garry where he was winning the striking exchanges but couldn't handle the grappling.
