UFC Paris 2026: The Next Round Is Already Being Prepared!

While the 2025 edition once again proved that the French audience is the "hottest" in the world, rumors are intensifying for UFC Paris 2026. After conquering the Accor Arena four times in a row, Dana White's organization is aiming higher.

What we know about the 2026 edition:

The date: If UFC keeps its usual schedule, the cage is expected to return to the capital in September 2026.
A numbered event? Early information suggests that Paris could finally host a numbered event (PPV) instead of a "Fight Night," which would bring world titles back to French soil.
Fighters side: We are closely watching the return of Benoît Saint-Denis for a rematch, the meteoric rise of Manon Fiorot for the title, and of course the presence of Nassourdine Imavov who has established himself as the boss of French MMA.

Why has UFC Paris become the unmissable style event?

Beyond the octagon, UFC Paris has become a true Streetwear Fashion Week. At each edition, the "front row" and the stands of the Accor Arena turn into a runway: technical sets, reflective textures, and oversized cuts. This is where the adrenaline of the fight meets urban aesthetics.

What exactly is UFC?

The UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) is the largest global MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) organization. Created in 1993, it combines disciplines such as boxing, jiu-jitsu, wrestling, and muay-thai to create a complete and engaging spectacle.

UFC Paris: an extraordinary show

The annual UFC Fight Night in Paris returns for its 4th edition on Saturday, September 6, 2025, at the Accor Arena, after five sold-out editions.

Where to watch and how to follow the fights?

Flashback: UFC Paris 2025 made history

The annual UFC Fight Night in Paris lived up to all expectations on Saturday, September 6, 2025. A sold-out evening that cemented France as a stronghold of global MMA.

The biggest fights of the night

Main event: Nassourdine Imavov vs Caio Borralho (middleweight): the highlight duel of the evening — the winner could earn a ticket for the world title

Co-main event: Benoît Saint-Denis vs Mauricio Ruffy

Other fights:

Why is this main event unique?

Nassourdine Imavov refused a "backup" role for a title fight at UFC 319 to stay focused on his night in Paris, a choice praised for his commitment to his match. Caio Borralho, for his part, aims to prove he also deserves a place at the top through this face-off.

UFC and its connection with streetwear style

UFC athletes become fashion references: massive sneakers, technical joggings, oversized hoodies… and spectators improvise an urban runway at the Accor Arena.
