While Page is known for his unorthodox striking style, Magomedov's orthodox stance and superior volume give him the tools to neutralize Page's flashy attacks. Magomedov's experience in high-pressure UFC environments, having fought four times in the promotion with a 4-0 record, will be crucial against the UFC debutant Page. The Russian fighter's ability to secure first-round finishes (seven in total) could prove decisive if he catches Page early. With his knockout power, striking accuracy, and growing UFC experience, Magomedov is well-positioned to hand Page a defeat in his promotional debut and continue his ascent in the middleweight rankings.

Why Michael Page Will Win

  • Last Fight: (L) Ian Garry – DEC
  • Last 5: 3-2
  • Finishes: 16 (12 KO/TKO/4 SUB)

Michael “Venom” Page is poised to secure a victory over Shara Magomedov at UFC Saudi Arabia this weekend, leveraging his unorthodox striking style and vast experience. Page's diverse kicking arsenal, phenomenal footwork, and exceptional distance management make him a nightmare for opponents to read. His ability to switch stances and throw unpredictable attacks will likely keep Magomedov guessing throughout the fight. With 22 wins and only three losses in his professional career, Page's experience in high-pressure situations gives him a significant edge.

While Magomedov boasts impressive striking accuracy, his glaring weakness in takedown defense could be exploited by Page's versatility. Page's background in kickboxing and karate, combined with his ability to land strikes from unconventional angles, will test Magomedov's defensive skills. Furthermore, Page's mental strength, forged through intense cardio sessions, will be crucial in maintaining his performance throughout the fight. Expect Page to utilize his creative striking and experience to outmaneuver Magomedov and potentially secure a highlight-reel knockout.

Final Shara Magomedov-Michael Page Prediction & Pick

Aside from the main event, this is the most compelling fight on the entire fight card when two of the most prolific strikers in the UFC go head-to-head in the co-main event. Magomedov has been on an absolute tear showcasing his striking prowess, especially in his last win with that brutal double back-fist knockout that was never done before meanwhile, Page remains one of the most technical strikes in the entire UFC despite his most recent loss to Ian Garry.

Ultimately, expect a very closely contested fight between these two fighters but it will be the speed and volume of Magomedov that will be the difference maker in this as sometimes Page just doesn't do enough and we can expect more of that in this matchup as Magomedov gets the nod on the judge's scorecards in a close decision.

Final Shara Magomedov-Michael Page Prediction & Pick: Shara Magomedov (-195), Over 2.5 Rounds (-230)
