This is the live blog for Nassourdine Imavov vs. Caio Borralho, the middleweight main event for Saturday’s UFC Paris card at Accor Arena.
Imavov joined the UFC in 2020 and quickly made a strong impression, until a setback loss to Sean Strickland in 2023. A weird no-contest with Chris Curtis followed, but since then, Imavov has been perfect, stringing together four ranked wins in a row, including most recently when he knocked out former two-time middleweight champion Israel Adesanya in February.
Leader of the Fighting Nerds gym that has taken the MMA world by storm, Borralho is undefeated in the UFC, putting together seven wins since joining the promotion from Contender Series. Most recently, he won a unanimous decision over one-time title challenger Jared Cannonier in 2024, and now he and Imavov face off for a possible shot at Khamzat Chimaev’s newly won middleweight title.
