Douglas Lima Tells Michael Page he Needs to Beat “Ranked Opponents”, Following Latter’s Latest Win
By FCF Staff
Michael Page scored a highlight reel, knockout win at Bellator London this past weekend. But, Bellator welterweight champ Douglas Lima says the striker needs to take out a contender, before he receives a rematch.
Page faced Giovanni Melillo in the card’s headliner, and finished the latter with one punch in the opening round. After Page’s victory, Lima tweeted out this:
Solid performance Michael Page! But I need to see wins against ranked opponents then you know where I’ll be! ✊🏽

Lima battled Page earlier this in May, and handed him his first defeat via a second-round, knockout.
