Michael Page wants to take more risks after defeating Nursulton Ruziboyev at UFC Paris

Page admitted during a post-fight interview at
UFC Paris being comfortable during a fight can sometimes be a bad sign because it means he hasn’t pushed himself hard enough. He believes he needs to take more chances instead of constantly looking for the perfect moment to hit flashy shots.

“The disappointing thing is that I feel great, which sometimes means I haven’t done enough and the results show that I haven’t done enough,” Page said. “I probably need to push myself a little bit more, take a few more risks. Sometimes I just want it to be too clean, too precise. I just feel like I’m holding back and wanting to give more.”

Former Bellator
standout is looking to re-sign with the UFC and believes he has more to offer the premier MMA organization.

“The fans deserve more, the UFC deserves more, I know I can give more and I feel like I’m almost ready.”
