Briton 'MVP' to fight Magomedov at UFC Saudi Arabia

Page has won one and lost one since joining the UFC earlier this year

Britain's Michael 'Venom' Page will face Russia's Sharaputdin Magomedov in a middleweight bout at UFC Saudi Arabia on 1 February.

Page, nicknamed 'MVP' is moving up from welterweight, where he has spent the majority of his career, for the contest.

The 37-year-old last fought in June, losing by unanimous decision to Ireland's Ian Machado Garry.

Unbeaten Magomedov, 30, has won the first 15 fights of his career with his last victory coming against Armen Petrosyan in October.

The card is headlined by a middleweight bout between former two-time champion Israel Adesanya and France's Nassourdine Imavov.

Nigerian-born New Zealander Adesanya is looking to bounce back from defeat by champion Dricus du Plessis in August, while Imavov is on a three-fight win streak.
