Official: Modibo Diakité, the “Silent King” of MMA, joins Le Cercle PXP
Summary
Modibo Diakité x PXP: silence as strength, style as identity
At Project X Paris, we don’t select our collabs. We recognize them. Because they have that something extra. That rare energy, that ability to embody a strong identity in everything they do.
That’s why we are proud to announce the arrival of Modibo Diakité in our Cercle PXP. An exceptional athlete, a determined soul, a man who silences noise to let the body and heart speak.
A unique trajectory in French MMA history
Modibo Diakité was born in Montreuil. Deaf from birth, he grew up with the desire to take his place, break prejudices, and be heard differently.
Joining MMA five years ago, he discovered a sport based entirely on sensations, instinct, and focus. Quickly, he established himself as a raw talent. He became the first deaf Frenchman to fight professionally in a cage. A historic fact, praised by Le Monde, Ouest-France, and Clique TV.
“Being pitied annoys me. I want to be respected, not helped.” — Modibo Diakité for Clique TV
The rising star of the ARES Fighting Championship
In September 2025, at ARES 34, Modibo fought in front of 8,000 spectators at the Adidas Arena. An entrance without music, in total silence. Extreme tension.
Result? A submission victory in the 2nd round. Cold, clear, clinical. The crowd is on its feet. The “Silent King” is here.
“I don’t stop there. I want to go further. Even higher.” — Modibo Diakité for CANAL+
Modibo has followed our brand since its beginnings. He grew up with streetwear, hip-hop, and street codes. He wears our pieces because they resemble him: authentic, assertive, uncompromising.
By joining Le Cercle PXP, he joins a family. A community of creators, athletes, artists united by a common ambition: to change the rules, push limits, inspire generations.
A PXP chain as a signature
To officialize his entry into our PXP Crew, Modibo received a diamond chain bearing our emblem.
A unique piece, designed for him. A silent crown for a discreet but powerful king.
