“I want to score a big knockout, a big knockout and then we'll go in search of the belt. I hope Leon (Edwards) still has the belt. I definitely believe he can still have the belt. We can do it in a stadium. We can make so much noise and fill a stadium in the UK and bring a story that hasn't been told in the UFC. If we can get two guys from the UK to headline an event in England it would be unbelievable. And for a belt? Like I said, it would be unprecedented. Let’s make it happen,” Page said.
