During the lead-up to UFC 303, fighters Ian Machado Garry and Michael Page engaged in a war of words, with Garry accusing Page of attempting to acquire training information in exchange for money. Garry went on to make bold claims about Page and his coach being suspended and banned for life after the fight. Page, on the other hand, did not address the allegations directly but instead told Garry to shut up.
Despite the heated exchanges in the pre-fight press conference, a backstage video showed a more amicable interaction between Garry, Page, and Garry’s young son. The video, captured by ESPN, depicted a friendly moment between the fighters, highlighting a different side to their relationship outside of the public eye.
The Nevada Athletic Commission’s statutes do not explicitly mention spying on training camps as a violation, leaving the exact nature of the potential suspension unclear. Amidst the drama and tension surrounding the accusations, the fighters were able to momentarily set aside their differences and share a positive moment backstage.
As UFC 303 approaches, the animosity between Garry and Page adds an extra layer of intrigue to the upcoming fight.
