Jake Paul Teases Michael Page Move After UFC Ends 6-Fight Deal

Summary
Dana White confirmed Michael "Venom" Page will not be re-signed by UFC after completing his six-fight contract with a Sept. 5 win over Nursulton Ruziboev in Paris.
Jake Paul quickly signaled interest, posting "Think it's time to bring MVP to MVP" as he looks to add the 39-year-old Londoner to his newly merged MVP-PFL operation.
Page leaves UFC with a 5-1 record and a four-fight winning streak after his loss to Ian Machado Garry, despite having been ranked No. 8 in the middleweight division.
White gave no reason for the exit, though online speculation has centered on Page's low-action style; the move would bolster Paul's broader MMA expansion after announcing MVP's merger with PFL.
