Jake Paul Expresses Interest in Michael Page Following UFC Departure

By MMAReign News Desk·Sep 9, 2026 • 3:04 PM

Jake Paul has publicly expressed interest in working with Michael 'Venom' Page after the UFC opted to part ways with the veteran fighter following his win at UFC Paris.

Following the recent news that the UFC has parted ways with Michael 'Venom' Page, Jake Paul has publicly expressed interest in working with the veteran fighter. Page recently competed at UFC Paris, where he secured a unanimous decision victory over Nursulton Ruziboev in a middleweight contest on the main card.

Despite the victory, Page's performance drew criticism, with some observers suggesting the fight lacked the excitement typically associated with the former Bellator standout. Paul, who has frequently inserted himself into the discourse surrounding notable free agents, signaled his desire to potentially sign or promote the 39-year-old fighter via social media messaging.

Page's departure from the UFC roster comes shortly after his latest appearance. While his time in the promotion was characterized by a unique striking style, his exit has opened the door for speculation regarding his next destination. As a free agent, Page brings significant name recognition and a large fan base to the open market. No formal negotiations or agreements between Paul and Page have been reported, and it remains to be seen if the two will move beyond this public overture.
