Anderson last competed back in November 2020. He scored a head kick knockout victory over Killys Mota.

Fight fans have been critical of how Bellator has booked Page but many agree that Anderson will be a legit opponent. Page has gone on a four-fight winning streak since suffering a knockout loss to Douglas Lima but many feel “MVP” wasn’t being given worthy opposition.
