The UFC president was seemingly among those unimpressed by Michael Page’s latest outing inside the Octagon.

Saturday’s UFC London event included the former Bellator title challenger’s return to welterweight, which came after he’d reeled off a pair of middleweight wins since his sole loss in the promotion to Ian Machado Garry.

After Page beat Shara Magomedov and Jared Cannonier in consecutive fights, he was disappointed to be handed a clash with unranked prospect Sam Patterson.

The fight was a clash of ex-training partners with similar styles, and many who were worried about that resulting in a dud had their fears come true.

Michael Page tells Dana White to be ‘mindful’ after his mid-fight walkout at UFC London

In addition to the choice of opponent, Page was also unhappy with his card placement at UFC London.

But the promotion will no doubt be relieved that they did not give him the main or co-main event spots after how his fight with Patterson played out.

‘MVP’ had his hand raised via unanimous decision after a fight that Joe Rogan described as “crazy bad.”

Dana White evidently was not keen on it either, as attendees revealed online that the UFC boss walked out of the arena midway through Page’s victory.

‘Venom’ reacted to that during his post-fight press conference and urged White to be more “mindful” about his actions.

“When you’re a man in those positions, he needs to remember, everything you do has a big effect. You create bigger waves with what you do and what you say,” Page said.

“So he just needs to be mindful of those things. But he’s known to be his own man. He does what he does.

“For me, it’s just go out there, perform the best that I can, and next time make him sit in his seat,” he added.

Page is now 4-1 in the UFC but some are even suggesting that his place on the roster could be at risk after another lackluster showing inside the Octagon.

‘MVP’ is not taking blame for how the fight at The O2 played out, however. Instead, he put it down to another opponent refusing to engage with him on the feet.
