"Crazy bad. That's a crazy bad fight. I bet it was one of those things where there's not a lot of guys lining up to take that fight. Because he makes you look so stupid, but this dude was like, I've been in there with him a hundred rounds, I know how to fight him."
"They didn't think, 'These guys are training partners, this might be a stinker?' Maybe it's like, you can't get anybody to fight Venom Page in London? That might be a problem, too."
Michael 'Venom' Page faced Sam Patterson in a highly criticized match that fans found boring, resulting in boos during and after the fight. UFC President Dana White acknowledged the fight's lack of excitement. Commentator Joe Rogan questioned the matchmaking, noting that both fighters were former training partners, which likely contributed to the dull outcome. Rogan speculated that the UFC may have struggled to find opponents willing to fight Page, leading to this matchup. Page's record improved to 4-1 in the UFC after winning by unanimous decision.
