MANILA, Philippines - Gotta catch ‘em all.
American mixed martial fighter Michael “Venom” Page, known as much for his flamboyance as his striking ability, donned his Pokemon hat after knocking out Evangelista Santos with a flying knee at 4:31 of round two at Bellator 185 on Saturday, July 16 at the O2 Arena in London, England.
Page then showed off his Pokemon trainer skills, rolling a Pokeball at his downed opponent. Unfortunately for Page, even a novice trainer would know you can’t catch a Pokemon after it has “fainted.”
The move was met with jeers by some on social media, who thought the exhibition showed little empathy towards his foe.
Maybe Page just wants to be the very best. Like no one ever was. – Rappler.com
