Allen Steps In For Page At RAF 14

Brendan Allen will make his RAF Wrestling debut on short notice after Michael Page withdrew from the promotion's Oct. 23 card in Las Vegas.

Page was scheduled to face Alexander Shlemenko at RAF 14 in what would have been his first post-UFC appearance, but pulled out due to timing issues, according to a person familiar with the situation. Allen steps in to meet Shlemenko just 13 days after the UFC middleweight contender headlines a Fight Night card against Christian Leroy Duncan.

Bella Mir Returns After DWCS Loss

Bella Mir returns to the RAF mat at the same event when she meets Hope Chase in a middleweight bout. Mir dropped a decision to Alex Apodaca on Dana White's Contender Series in what MMA Fighting called "the biggest upset in the show's history."

Chase brings a three-fight winning streak into her RAF debut, including a submission win over former UFC fighter Pannie Kianzad at Fusion Fight League in August. The Invicta and LFA veteran will face Mir, who lost her RAF debut to Alexis Gomez last November.

RAF 14 takes place at Fountainbleau Las Vegas with Arman Tsarukyan facing Dillon Danis in the main event. Khamzat Chimaev meets Robbie Lawler in the co-main.
