Page knocked out former UFC welterweight Shinsho Anzai in a catchweight bout. Here’s what some of the pros had to say about his performance.

“MVP is in a very entertaining squash match.”

“Saying MVP has fought tougher competition than Silva as this is going on… how dare you”

“Naruto!!!! #BellatorJapan”

The win over Anzai gives Page a three-fight win streak since he was knocked out by Douglas Lima back in June. Page has been criticized as a “can crusher” for beating lesser opponents but said after the event that he welcomes the haters.

As for Chandler, he knocked out highly-touted prospect Sidney Outlaw in a catchweight bout that served as the evening’s co-main event. Here’s what some of the pros had to say about that bout.

“.@MikeChandlerMMA dropped a bomb on Sidney Outlaw for his record 12th @BellatorMMA finish.”

“Damnnnnn. Melted him”

“Mystic Tat, I said he was going to ko him with a right hand”

“Nice k.o by @MikeChandlerMMA”

“@MikeChandlerMMA is the real”

Chandler lost the Bellator lightweight title in his last bout against Patricio Pitbull that snapped his three-fight losing skid. Getting this win over Outlaw puts him back on the map in the Bellator lightweight division and he could get a shot at a possible vacant title since Pitbull will be locked into the Bellator Featherweight Grand Prix for a while.
