Dan Hooker and Salahdine Parnasse headline UFC Fight Night at Accor Arena in Paris on September 5, a lightweight main event between a veteran finisher and an unbeaten French prospect fighting in front of his home crowd. The card streams live on Paramount+, main card at 9:00 PM, prelims at 6:00 PM.
Nine French fighters compete on home soil at this card. Salahdine Parnasse headlines against Dan Hooker, and eight more, Farés Ziam, Axel Sola, Morgan Charrière, Oumar Sy, Michael Aljarouj, Nora Cornolle, Matthieu Letho Duclos, and Delphine Benouaich, get to fight in front of a Paris crowd instead of traveling for it.
Main Card
Farés Ziam and Axel Sola meet in an all-French lightweight clash, Ziam's rangy southpaw kickboxing against Sola's finishing instincts as a four-time ARES FC champion. Both fighters get a home crowd behind them, and Sola in particular has a habit of ending things before it reaches the scorecards.
Michael "Venom" Page brings his Bellator-built highlight reel up to middleweight against Nursulton Ruziboev, an Uzbek veteran of 49 professional fights who arrived in the UFC with more cage time than most of the roster combined. Page is the far bigger name, but Ruziboev's sheer volume of experience makes him a live threat to anyone who takes him lightly.
Daniil Donchenko, the Ukrainian winner of The Ultimate Fighter season 33, carries a perfect 3-0 UFC record into this step up against Punahele Soriano. Soriano, a former NCAA Division III All-American wrestler out of Hawaii, has rebuilt his UFC run since dropping to welterweight in 2024.
Morgan Charrière, known as "The Last Pirate," fights in front of his home French crowd again after making his UFC debut at the promotion's last Paris card with a first-round knockout. Felipe Lima, "Jungle Boy," arrives from Brazil's Amazonas region with just one loss on his record, built on a career split between his homeland and Sweden.
Losene Keita, the Guinean-born Belgian known as "Black Panther," looks to bounce back from a split-decision loss to fellow card member Nathaniel Wood when he meets Muhammad Naimov. Naimov, born in Kulob, Tajikistan, built his base in taekwondo, winning Asian junior titles before switching to MMA.
Whichever fight you're watching for, here's how to back it with a serious bankroll boost.

Preliminary Card
Mario Pinto puts his undefeated 12-0 record on the line against Ryan Spann, a veteran launching his heavyweight run after years built at light heavyweight. The Portuguese prospect has stopped or outpointed all three of his UFC opponents so far, while "Superman" Spann brings 24 professional wins and a long history of testing unbeaten fighters just like him.
Kurtis Campbell, the Liverpool striker who took up Muay Thai at seven, looks to bounce back from his first UFC loss against Trevor Peek. Peek, who turned his life around through martial arts after a rough start in rural Alabama, steps up to featherweight with a finish rate of nearly 90 percent behind him.
Oumar Sy, a Paris-born light heavyweight with an 83-inch reach, fights in front of his home crowd looking to rebound from a loss to Ion Cutelaba. Modestas Bukauskas, "The Baltic Gladiator," made history as the first Lithuanian to win inside the UFC and arrives as a two-time Cage Warriors champion.
Nathaniel Wood, London's "Last Kingsman," rides his split-decision win over card-mate Losene Keita into a matchup with Brazil's Mairon Santos. Santos, nicknamed "The Legend," has lost just once as a professional and arrives off winning The Ultimate Fighter season 32 by second-round knockout.
Michael Aljarouj, a Syrian refugee who rebuilt his career in France, makes his UFC debut against fellow debutant Fabia Sintes, two regional champions stepping up together. Aljarouj carries a 13-3 record and heavy hands into the Octagon, while Sintes arrives on a seven-fight win streak that earned him a UFC contract straight out of Menorca.
Nora Cornolle, a former French national Muay Thai champion, fights in Paris ranked 13th in the UFC's women's bantamweight division against Poland's Klaudia Syguła. Syguła trains at American Top Team in Florida and arrives off a decision win over veteran Priscila Cachoeira.
Matthieu Letho Duclos, a former Hexagone MMA champion who has finished eight of his ten wins by knockout, fights in front of his home French fans against Brazil's Luis Felipe Dias. Dias, a black belt in both jiu-jitsu and Muay Thai, arrives on a win streak that includes a first-round finish in his own UFC debut.
Delphine Benouaich, who reached the semifinals of The Ultimate Fighter season 34 before earning her own UFC contract, fights on home soil against Argentina's Sofia Montenegro. Montenegro, nicknamed "La Bruja," turned a Contender Series defeat into the UFC deal that brought her to Paris.
