The ‘British Invasion’ is set to go down at Bellator 134 in Uncasville, Connecticut, USA on February 27, and this week Channel 5 hosted a press conference with Team UK members Paul Daley, Liam McGeary, Linton Vassell, Michael Page, and James Thompson.

Speaking to MMA Plus, undefeated welterweight Michael ‘Venom’ Page (7-0) acknowledged that his unorthodox striking has drawn considerable attention from MMA fans and experts around the world, including a notable tip of the cap from Anderson Silva, but that many are also watching in anticipation of failure, as confidence and success is never without its critics.

However, the kickboxing world champion has unquestionable faith in his style, effort and ability, and assures everyone that his focus will not slip; “If I start slacking in some areas, you will see it in my fights,” he explained.

At Bellator 134: British Invasion, Page welcomes American Curtis Millender (7-0) who’s set to make his first Bellator appearance. While Millender has criticized the ‘flashy’ style of which Page has become known for, the Londoner responded, stating that Millender will indeed see a flash when they meet on Feb.27.
