Michael ‘Venom’ Page has been removed from the UFC’s roster with immediate effect according to Dana White.The 39-year-old from London scored his fourth consecutive promotional win this past weekend at UFC Paris in what was the last fight of his contract.Page was disappointed with his UFC Paris performance and will now need to seek a new promotion after being cutGettyHowever, just like his previous appearance against Sam Patterson at UFC London, Page was booed throughout the contest, unable to find the highlight-reel finish he has provided so many times throughout his illustrious career.Despite winning, Page, 26-3 in his MMA career, suggested after the fight that the UFC brass were unhappy with his performance and questioned the promotion’s decision not to offer him a post-fight interview.Page had already recognised that he may have to change his style moving forward, having made it clear to talkSPORT.com that he wanted to re-sign with the UFC after Paris.But on Monday, members of the media — who collectively vote to form the UFC’s rankings system not curated by AI — were informed that Page ‘has been removed from rankings eligibility effective immediately.’“If you have him in your middleweight division already, we ask that you please re-rank that division to make sure you have 15 athletes,” a statement from the promotion read via John Morgan.Dana White confirms MVP’s exit from UFCAnd Dana White has now confirmed Page’s exit from the promotion in brutal fashion, insisting he was unsure why people believe he would be re-signed.“That was his last fight on his contract,” White said during a press conference. “I don’t think we’re signing him, no. What’s the confusion? “I think it’s been pretty clear that he wasn’t being re-signed, and that he would be taken out of the rankings, because he’s no longer on the roster.”All five of Page’s wins inside the UFC‘s Octagon went the distance, with his sole loss coming at the hands of Ian Machado Garry in 2024.White confirmed Page will not be offered a new deal by the UFCGettyHe had built up a streak at middleweight, despite failing to stop any of his his last four opponents.But he will now need to seek a new promotion to continue his future in combat sports after being removed from White’s roster.What next for MVP after UFC cut?Given his star power and profile, interest will likely come for Page from multiple sources.Jake Paul’s new look merged promotion with PFL will almost certainly explore the acquisition of Page.The London Shootfighters charge could even return to previous pastures, with a bare-knuckle future potentially on the cards.And chairman of promotion BKFC David Feldman has confirmed he would be interested in rekindling their working relationship.talkSPORT's UFC pound-for-pound rankingstalkSPORT.com has collectively voted on the best fighters to form a regularly updated UFC pound-for-pound (P4P) rankings system for the rest of 2026 and beyond.Our P4P list will be updated regularly based on performances in the Octagon — with wins, records, title wins and defences, calibre of opponents, methods of victory and much more all determining who makes it.UFC champions Islam Makhachev, Tom Aspinall and Sean Strickland feature – but big stars such as Alex Pereira and Arman Tsarukyan miss out.He explained: “We would definitely welcome ‘MVP’. When he fought for us with Mike Perry, it was a pretty exciting match, and a lot of people actually thought he won that fight.“You can’t really be boring in BKFC, so it’s hard for him to fight that type of fight in BKFC.“We would be interested? Yes. I think BKFC will force excitement out of ‘MVP’, and I think that the fans would love that.”
