Michael Page secured a well-deserved unanimous decision victory over Shara Magomedov at the UFC Saudi Arabia co-main event on February 1. The highly anticipated middleweight clash saw MVP dominate the majority of the fight, ultimately winning all three rounds on all three scorecards.
The first round began with both fighters feeling each other out, exchanging jabs and looking for openings to land a big shot. Magomedov’s speed and agility initially gave him an advantage, but Page’s length and karate training allowed him to stay patient and wait for opportunities to strike. A flurry of quick kicks from MVP sent “Shara” into the fence, setting up a beautiful straight right that left Magomedov stumbling.
The second round saw Magomedov struggling to keep pace with the confident Middleweight champion. Page’s speed, agility, and precision landed several significant shots, including a jumping knee to the body and a nasty upkick. MMAFighting scores it 10-9 for Page in this round, putting him firmly ahead on all three scorecards.
The third round saw Magomedov’s corner urging him to finish the fight, but he was unable to get anything going against Page’s relentless pressure. A huge flying knee from MVP left him stumbling back into the fence, but Magomedov still couldn’t muster enough offense to turn the tide. MMAFighting scores this round 10-9 for Magomedov, narrowing the lead to a single point on all three scorecards.
In the end, Page’s superior conditioning and technique earned him a well-deserved unanimous decision victory, cementing his position as one of the top middleweights in the UFC.
