UFC Paris, the fourth annual trip for the UFC to France, is here. Today (USA time,) the promotion touches down at Accor Arena for the first of three cards on the September schedule.
Live coverage begins at 12 noon ET/ 9 am PT on ESPN+Â with the UFC Paris prelims, followed by the main card at 3 pm ET/ 12 noon PT. After a slightly chaotic official weigh-in window yesterday, 13 of the planned 14 fights will take place today.
Initially, Losene Keita was to make his UFC debut today versus Patricio Pitbull but the former missed the nontitle maximum for featherweight by 3 lbs at yesterday’s weigh-in. Pitbull weighed-in on-target at 145 lbs yesterday.
UFC Paris Main Event: No. 2 Contender Nassourdine Imavov vs. No. 7 Contender Caio Borralho
