He said, “No no a lot of what I do is already premeditated like I already know like. This is why I have my gimmicks. My celebrations are already set. They’re ready. Cause I have already seen it.”

“I’ve seen it a hundred times, I’ve seen it a million times, and I have seen it play out,” the fighter concluded. After his first UFC victory, Page didn’t quite bring out any of his famous celebrations. However, he did impress one and all with his performance inside the Octagon.
