Bellator star Michael Venom Page supports Jake Paul's campaign for increased fighter pay. He would 'definitely face' a YouTuber

MICHAEL VENOM PAGE supports Jake Paul's campaign to raise fighter pay, but will 'definitely return to boxing' to face him.

YouTube star Paul has voiced his disapproval at Dana White, accusing him of underpaying his fighters.

He even claimed that he had taken money from his purse to increase the amount of money available to undercard fighters.

The Bellator welterweight MVP said it was no surprise that ex-MMA champions have moved to boxing in search of a better payday.

Sky Sports was informed by him: "Yeah. I'm a huge supporter of his work there, and I totally agree with him on this side.

"Why is it fighters so eager to jump ship?" We aren't being paid the right amount for our work.

"This is why, he's totally right. If we were treated with respect, we wouldn't entertain such fights.

Paul, 24 won his professional debut in January against 'AnEsonGib, and was then knocked out 11 months later by ex-NBA star Nate Robinson (37).

His two last fights were against Ben Askren (37), and Tyron Woodley (39) respectively.

Venom Page, 34 years old, is a 2-0 boxer and tipped Woodley for Paul. He is now ready to take on the challenge.

He stated that he understood why this was happening. It's obvious that there is a lot of money being drawn in business-wise.

"But, Tyron Woodley seemed to be going to fix this crazy world we live in right now.

"Just to right the world, I would jump in and knock him out, shake his hands afterwards, and say, Continue doing whatever you're doing.

"Yeah, but I need to prove it to everyone."

Venom Page has never lost in any of his five MMA fights. He did lose to Douglas Lima in 2019.

On Friday, he will rematch Lima, 33 years old, and will have the opportunity to avenge his loss in front of his London home crowd at Wembley Arena.

Venom Page stated: "It has been two years since it happened, so I am definitely excited. I think it is amazing that it is actually happening. I have it in my hometown.

"I felt that a lot of my support was with me on this journey. When I lost that battle, it hurt just as much.

"Now they can come and see the redemption."
