September’s UFC Paris card, the promotion’s annual visit to the City of Lights, has had a host of fights announced.
Among them, the return of English star Michael “Venom” Page (25-3), who will stay with the welterweight division to take on Nursulton Ruziboev (37-9-2, 2NC).
UFC officials announced that booking, and several more, on social media on Wednesday. The additional fights include:
- Kurtis Campbell vs. Trevor Peek
- Mario Pinto vs. Ryan Spann
- Losene Keita vs. Muhammad Naimov
- Nora Cornolle vs. Klaudia Syguła
- Oumar Sy vs. Modestas Bukauskas
Page has split his time between welterweight and middleweight since arriving in the UFC from Bellator a few years back. A former title contender in that promotion, Page is 4-1 under the UFC banner and holds wins over Shara Bullet, Jared Cannonier, and Kevin Holland. His lone loss in the promotion came to Ian Machado Garry at UFC 303 in June 2024; Garry is now set to fight for welterweight gold next month.
Last time out, he returned to 170lbs to pick up a victory over Sam Patterson.
Uzbek Ruziboev is 5-1 under the UFC banner thus far, and has won three straight bouts inside the octagon. His lone loss in the company came in a welterweight bout against Joaquin Buckley, after which he returned to 185lbs. It’s another trip down to welterweight for Ruziboev here.
No main event has been announced for UFC Paris, which takes place on September 5, 2026 at the Accor Arena in Paris, France.
