Last Saturday, UFC 304 took place at the Co-op Live in Manchester, England. Former UFC Featherweight Champion Alexander Volkanovski, who attended the event, claimed on his YouTube channel that the two fighters had an altercation in the hotel lobby.
On Wednesday, Casuals Corner posted a video clip of Michael “Venom” Page and Farid Basharat involved in an altercation at the fighter hotel. The incident occurred on Sunday morning after UFC 304. The security personnel separated the two fighters before things went too far.
On X, Basharat explained his side of the story as follows:
“I’ve never been one to look for a fight but if somebody starts it I will never shy away. He swung first and then backed away. Coward and a fake nice guy. But it’s cool.. I know how to deal with bullies. See you around 👍🏻”
