Michael Page, who recently made a successful UFC debut by beating Kevin Holland, explained why he doesn't want to fight Stephen Thompson.

"There's an interesting point here: plus on plus doesn't always give you a plus. We have very similar styles, we can have a boring fight because of that. We'll both feint, and in doing so we'll both read each other's feints. Only the elite fighters will be able to understand what is going on in this fight, for the average fighter it will look like we are not fighting. I don't think this fight will be interesting, and I like Steven a lot, I don't want to beat him. But I don't know. At the end of the day we're all driven by money, so we'll see what happens," Page said.
