Michael Page Wants to Welcome Rory MacDonald to Bellator MMA
Welterweight sensation Michael Page would love to welcome Rory MacDonald to Bellator.
Bellator MMA's acquisition of Rory MacDonald is undoubtedly one of the biggest free agency signings of 2016.
Having stated his willingness to move up and down weight divisions in search of the biggest names and the biggest pay days, the Canadian has a number potential opponents who could be stood opposite him on his debut night inside the Bellator cage.
MacDonald's debut is penciled in for summer 2017, and one man in the Bellator MMA welterweight division who thinks he could well be the guy to welcome him to the promotion is Michael Page.
Speaking earlier Monday in London, England, the British star said the timing could well be right for him and that it'd be an honor to be the Canadian's first opponent.
"100 percent man, I'd love to be the gatekeeper," Page said. "If that happens, then I think it'd be an exciting fight. And like I said, I'm confident in my abilities you know.
"It may just be the perfect time. The thing is, we are in the same division now, and we are both big names. It's going to happen. Whether I be the first person, second, or third. We are going to crossover, and we are going to meet."
