In a dramatic turn at the UFC 303 pre-fight press conference, Ian Machado Garry leveled a serious accusation against Michael Page, claiming the former Bellator fighter attempted to bribe a coach for insider information.
Garry’s accusation came after a heated exchange on stage, where he taunted Page with veiled threats and claims of possessing damaging information. Despite Page’s dismissive reaction, Garry persisted, alleging that Page and his team tried to pay off someone within Garry’s camp to gain strategic insights ahead of their UFC 303 bout.
“Did you and your team offer thousands of dollars to get information in Chute Boxe from my boys?” Garry shouted. “Your little f*cking rat jiu-jitsu coach offered money to one of my Brazilian friends and you got nothing. Saturday night, you’re f*cked.”
The accusation, though sensational, raises eyebrows in the MMA community, where rumors of camp infiltrations have surfaced in the past. Garry’s threat of potential lifetime bans for Page and his coach adds a layer of intensity to their upcoming fight.
Page, known for his confident demeanor, brushed off the allegations with a mix of amusement and defiance.
“This guy’s hilarious,” Page responded amid chants of “MVP” from the crowd. “All I know is the one and only ‘MVP’ is here at the UFC and I’m about to make some noise.”
The press conference concluded with a tense faceoff between the welterweights, moderated by UFC CEO Dana White to prevent any further escalation.
As the UFC 303 showdown approaches, fans are eagerly anticipating whether Garry’s accusations will impact the highly anticipated clash between two formidable fighters.
