How far do you see him going? The stoppage looked a bit quick but there was over 2 minutes to go so maybe for the best. Page looks very unorthodox so not easy to fight.

I think it looks like he has far more KO power wearing MMA gloves over boxing gloves, and doesn't seem to have the same pinpoint accuracy against a trained boxer.

Can't see him winning anything of note to be fair

He’s a novelty I guess. The fact he’s talking about mixing between boxing and MMA suggests he’s not taking it too seriously. Good idea to be fair because he didn’t look all that last night!

Boxingwise he's nowhere near Smalls league

Very unimpressive, I'm sure he can do better, but I'm not sure how much.

Looks fantastic fighting stiffs in MMA now in boxing looks a poor excuse for a Hamed impersonator fighting bigger stiffs, all show. We will see how much substance he's got when he steps up.

Complete fckwit who knows that people will pay to see some people to lose which has gone on for eons but does not understand quite how that works, same as Prince Patel - being a complete cockwomble but shite fighter does not get the turnstile ringing. Ones who do are people who polarise opinion, but who can really fight hard, earn respect but irritate at the same time so they pay to watch as they appreciate the work but also kinda want to see the guy trip up - a la Eubank Snr

This guy is not only a prick but an easily beatable one and he will not need to step up many levels at all to get exposed and obliterated. Haye talking the bollox he was make me hate him a little more too (and I don't care if it is promoter speak, he just chatted total shite)

He should stick with the MMA

If he was fighting anyone of note he'd have got countered and KOd as he was telegraphing every shot

His power didn't carry into the boxing ring aswell

Stick with MMA and fight Paul Daley

Bit of a douche.

He was being built as the next big thing by Bellator, not sure why he has randomly taken up boxing.

I was quite interested to see his debut as when I was a wee child he would be competing in the same various leisure centre tournaments up and down the country as myself. Thankfully I was never alone with his father!
I don't really follow MMA but the feeling amongst the MMA guys training in my gym seems to be that he was being kept away from solid grapplers as he was considered an asset by Bellator and wasn't able to deal with them well.
He's 30 years old so realistically there is a limit to how much his boxing can improve.
I don't see him troubling people at British level or higher but perhaps an area or English title is doable.
Not sure what the point of pretending he intends to box and compete MMA, the BBBoC don't allow that.
