UFC announces return to Paris for end of summer
The UFC continues to make its annual trip to France. A UFC Fight Night event is set to take place Sept. 6 at Accor Arena in Paris, promotion officials announced Tuesday morning. No fights were included in the announcement. The promotion's most recent trip to Paris took place last Sept. 28, 2024, where France's Benoit Saint Denis headlined UFC Fight Night 243 against Renato Moicano. Saint Denis lost a doctor's stoppage TKO in Round 2 after doctors declared him unable to see. In the co-main event, Nassourdine Imavov extended his winning streak by defeating Brendan Allen by unanimous decision, and rising lightweight Fares Ziam scored one of the best knockouts of the year over Matt Frevola.

UFC 318: Patricio Freire gets sophomore assignment vs. Dan Ige in New Orleans
UFC 318: Patricio Freire gets sophomore assignment vs. Dan Ige in New Orleans Ask and you shall receive. It looks like the UFC heard Dan Ige's recent callout and obliged, booking him against former two-division Bellator champion Patricio Freire for UFC 318 – a pay-per-view event that's set to go down July 19 at Smoothie King Center in New Orleans. MMA Junkie confirmed the news with two sources following a report from Super Lutas on Tuesday. Both Ige (19-9 MMA, 11-8 UFC) and Freire (36-8 MMA, 0-1 UFC) fought at UFC 314 in April in different bouts. Ige stopped fellow veteran Sean Woodson, while Freire lost his UFC debut in a unanimous decision against Yair Rodriguez. With the victory, Ige was able to snap a two-fight losing skid that had him dropping decisions against top contenders Diego Lopes and Lerone Murphy. On the other hand, Freire, who's arguably the most successful fighter in Bellator history, fell into a 1-3 rut. Prior to debuting for the UFC, "Pitbull" stopped Jeremy Kennedy and lost to Chihiro Suzuki and Sergio Pettis. Current UFC 318 lineup
