Khamzat Chimaev has improved his striking since making his UFC debut, but he's primarily known as a relentless grappler. Meanwhile, Michael 'Venom' Page has always been an unpredictable striker who can knock out his opponents at any moment. Therefore, they could both benefit from training together.
When are Khamzat Chimaev and Michael 'Venum' Page's next fights?
Khamzat Chimaev last fought in October 2023, defeating former welterweight champion Kamaru Usman in a short-notice middleweight bout. With 185 pounds being his home for the foreseeable future, the 30-year-old looks to secure a title shot next time out.
On June 22, Chimaev looks to add another former UFC champion to his resume as he takes on Robert Whittaker. 'Borz' and Whittaker will headline UFC Saudi Arabia inside the Kingdom Arena, with the winner fighting Dricus Du Plessis or Israel Adesanya, assuming the latter is getting a title shot.
As for Michael 'Venom' Page, he made his octagon debut on March 9 and showcased an impressive unanimous decision performance against Kevin Holland. It's unclear when and who Page will fight next. With that said, the 37-year-old has been linked to rumors for a matchup against Stephen 'Wonderboy' Thompson.
