UFC has arrived in Paris to deliver a blockbuster show!

The MMA leader is all set to return to the French capital for the fourth consecutive year this Saturday to deliver a Fight Night card headlined by two hungry Middleweights ready to capitalize on the opportunity and secure a future title shot.

The Fight Night card will take place on Saturday, September 6, at Accor Arena in Paris, France. Similar to previous UFC events across the Atlantic and along the Seine, this Saturday’s card will highlight some of the top French fighters on the roster.

Nassourdine Imavov and Caio Borralho will headline the show, while one of the French standouts, Benoit Saint Denis will battle Borralho’s fellow countryman Mauricio Ruffy in the co-main event. Both the main and the co-main features a battle between France and Brazil.
