<\/div>\n

Michael
\nPage<\/a> wanted to make a statement with his walkout song at
\n
\nUFC London<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Page (25-3) faced fellow Englishman Sam
\nPatterson<\/a> (14-3) in front of their home fans in the O2 Arena in
\nLondon last weekend. Page walked out to Michael
\nJackson<\/a>\u2019s iconic \u201cThey Don\u2019t Care About Us,\u201d which was
\nadmittedly a message against the disrespect he felt.<\/p>\n

While Page is a considerable star at home, he was neither in the
\nco-main nor the main event. Page also admits that he felt
\ndisrespected being matched up with a former training partner,
\nPatterson, whom \u201cMVP\u201d doesn\u2019t consider as big a star as himself.
\nWhile Page failed to deliver with a lackluster unanimous decision
\nwin, he believes the O2 Arena was originally there to see him.
\nFilmed in the Santa Marta Favela in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, \u201cThey
\nDon\u2019t Care About Us\u201d sends a powerful social message against
\ninjustice. Page also added that his song was a statement against
\nthe general cruelty going on worldwide.<\/p>\n

\u2018It Was a Bit of Annoyance\u2019<\/h2>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve spoken about being frustrated in terms of the decisions that
\nwere made,\u201d Page said on “The Ariel Helwani Show.\u201d<\/a> \u201cI think the main one
\nfor me was the fact that they put a young kid, who is super
\ntalented, but has only had one fight in the UFC, as a co-main
\nevent. I felt disrespected. The effort in what I\u2019ve delivered for
\nthe fans, even in that same arena and other arenas around the
\nworld. Even if I haven\u2019t necessarily gotten the finish yet, I\u2019ve
\ndelivered some really entertaining fights, given a lot to people to
\nspeak about, and made a lot of noise. To be like, \u2018Ah, he\u2019s not
\nco-main, he\u2019s not main, in his own backyard.\u2019 I think the majority
\nof the people out there were to see me. Although I didn\u2019t deliver,
\nthey were there to come and see what MVP had to show. It was a bit
\nof annoyance, so I felt [the song] was relevant.\u201d <\/p>\n
