Page competed for the WEC, the UFC, LFA, Pancrase, King of the Cage, and also fought at K-1 Premium Dynamite 2006!!.

However, one night three months into his first semester at Fresno State, Page was attacked by eight gang members who left him severely hurt and barely conscious.

After the incident, Page found Jackson's Submission Fighting and also continued collegiate wrestling for Cerritos College in Norwalk, California.

Six months later, Page faced the undefeated Brian Bowles and was submitted in short order with a guillotine choke.

Page was expected to face Takeya Mizugaki on December 19, 2009, at WEC 45,[6] but was forced to withdraw from the card due to injury.

Page acknowledged that the long layoff may have contributed to his performance, but refused to blame his conditioning and gave credit to his opponent finishing him.
