Michael 'Venom' Page signs with KSI's Misfits Boxing

Michael 'Venom' Page has signed with KSI's Misfits Boxing, with the co-founder announcing the move at an event on Saturday. The former UFC fighter will join the promotion run by the influencer, musician and ex-boxer.

Page, 39, had his final fight on his UFC contract in September when he beat Nursulton Ruziboev, recording a fifth win in six outings since making his debut for the organisation in 2024. Despite that run, he was dropped by the MMA promotion and is now linking up with Misfits.

On joining the promotion Page said: "I've been in combat sports for a long time and I've had plenty of options, but MF Sports is the right fit for me," and added, "They're doing things differently, the energy is huge, and the fights are big. "I'm excited for this new chapter, and I'm coming to show the boxing world what I can do. I feel free, shackles are off."

Page has won 26 of his 29 MMA fights and is a decorated kickboxer. The former Bellator star made his professional boxing debut in 2017 and is 2-0 as a boxer, but has not fought in the sport since 2018.

KSI, a co-founder of Misfits, described Page as "one of the biggest names in combat sports, and everyone wanted him." The influencer, musician and former boxer added: "For him to choose Misfits says everything about where we are as a promotion. He's a superstar, he's explosive, and fans are going to love watching him in the ring with us."

Page has signed a "multi-fight, multi-year agreement" with Misfits Boxing.
