We have you covered for all of today's UFC Paris results, including the lightweight main event between Dan Hooker and Salahdine Parnasse.

Hooker (24-14 MMA) will enter the contest with hopes of snapping a two-fight losing skid. ‘The Hangman' most previously competed this past February at UFC 325 in Sydney, where he suffered a second-round TKO loss to Benoit Saint Denis. That setback was preceded by a submission loss to Arman Tsarukyan in November of last year. Prior to those defeats, Dan Hooker had put together a three-fight winning streak, a stretch which included victories over Jalin Turner and Mateusz Gamrot.

Meanwhile, Salahdine Parnasse (23-2 MMA) will be making his Octagon debut this evening in Paris. The former two-division KSW champion will enter the contest on a five-fight winning streak, with his most recent victory coming over Kenneth Cross at May's ‘Rousey vs. Carano' MVP MMA event.

Round one of the UFC Paris headliner begins and Dan Hooker is being very patient early. Salahdine Parnasse is using a lot of feints and movement. Both men connect with kicks from range. Hooker continues to dish out the low kicks, but Parnasse is checking most of them. Salahdine is backing ‘The Hangman' up against the cage. A heavy body kick from Parnasse hurts Hooker! That looked like a liver shot. Hooker is doubled over and covering up! Salahdine Parnasse swarms him with shots. A big left hand drops the UFC veteran and this one is all over! WOW! What a debut!

Michael Page promised to deliver a knockout. So of course he is going to point his way to a decision with 30 significant strikes landed. #UFCParis

John Hathaway in MVP’s corner. It’s nice that even though his return to competition was short-lived that he’s found a more permanent spot in the MMA space #UFCParis

No fucking way. MVP buggy choke would be too much

This fight is making me fall asleep. #UFCParis

10-9 Ruziboev #UFCParis

They way they have completely failed at matchmaking Page needs to be studied. Hopefully MVP or Coker know what they’re doing.

— caposa (@Grabaka_Hitman) September 5, 2026

MVP is really one of the most frustrating fighters ever to watch. You know he can do absolutely violent things at a moment’s notice, but he spends 99% of his time doing absolutely nothing. You get like one cool moment from him every 4 fights.

Post-fight reactions to Michael Page defeating Nursulton Ruziboev at UFC Paris:

29-28 MVP

MVP has proven that he can beat solid competition in the UFC, but he hasn’t been able to do it with the same sort of magic that once made him such a big attraction in MMA.

Smart game plan and should get the nod on the scorecards. Ruziboev barely did anything.

I've never been so excited for a fight to end lmfao

Yeah I am done defending this guy. Horrendously boring performance, and he can do so much better. Killer instinct of Mother Teresa. https://t.co/R4CHQCa3Tg

— Tom Taylor (@TomTaylorWrites) September 5, 2026

ZERO chance the UFC re-signs Michael Page after this performance. No way. He’s gone. #UFCParis

Round one of this UFC Paris middleweight matchup begins and Nursulton Ruziboev immediately shoots in for a takedown attempt and gets it. That took all of five seconds. ‘MVP' looks to secure a buggy choke. Ruziboev ultimately escapes and is now on top and in full control. He lands a nice elbow. No real action for the next 30 seconds or so. Now another elbow. Michael Page looks to scramble but Ruziboev won't allow him to stand back up. ‘Venom' eventually gets up on his feet, but Ruziboev is holding on to a body lock. Page lands some elbows while in the clinch. He eventually breaks free to space but is unable to land anything significant from range before the horn sounds to end the opening round.

Round two begins and Michael Page comes forward with a right hand that partially connects. Nursulton Ruziboev forces the clinch, but MVP quickly breaks free to space. ‘Venom' with a solid low kick. Ruziboev answers with a calf kick. Page throws a body kick, but Ruziboev catches it. The fighters clinch again. Not much for action or any forms of punches. Ruziboev may have landed an uppercut late. Not the fight most fans were hoping for.

The third and final round of this UFC Paris middleweight bout begins and Michael Page lands a solid punch to start. Ruziboev is quickly in on a takedown. He gets it. ‘MVP' is working hard to get back to his feet. He eventually does. Page pressing forward while doing next to nothing. Ruziboev actually doing nothing aside from retreating. The crowd is not happy. This snorefest comes to an end? Possibly the last time fans will see Page in the UFC.

Adding to the win column ✅@MichaelPage247 gets the UD victory at #UFCParis!
