ANAHEIM, Calif. — Unbeaten Bellator welterweight Michael "Venom" Page will face Fernando Gonzalez in his next bout Nov. 19 in San Jose, California.

The promotion made the announcement Friday before the Bellator 160 show at Honda Center in Anaheim.

Britain’s Page (11-0) is among Bellator’s most promising fighters. He was booked to face the veteran Gonzalez (25-13) twice earlier this year, but both bouts fell through.

Page instead stopped Evangelista Santos with a flying knee in his last bout, earning the 10th stoppage of his relatively brief professional mixed martial arts career.

Gonzalez has won five straight fights as an underdog.

Bellator’s welterweight division is expected to soon include Rory MacDonald, the Canadian veteran who fought for the UFC title last year. He became a free agent this summer.
