The UFC is set to host an exciting bout in Paris, as undefeated Brazilian fighter Caio Borralho takes on Nassourdine Imavov, currently on a four-fight winning streak.
Standing at 6-foot-1 with a 75-inch reach, Borralho is known for his active kicking game. With a record of 17-1 and five wins by knockout or technical knockout, he has proven to be a formidable opponent in the octagon. His most recent victory was against Jared Cannonier, achieved via unanimous decision, and marked a departure from his usual tactic of implementing jiu jitsu.
Borralho, who has been with the UFC since 2022 and represents Brazil, has been training with the Fighting Nerds, which has contributed to his evolution into a more complete fighter.
Imavov, standing at 6-foot-3 with the same 75-inch reach, poses a significant challenge. He has a record of 16-4 and has been with the UFC since 2020. His most notable victory was against Israel Adesanya, earning him the biggest win of his career.
