UFC Paris weigh-in results: Salahdine Parnasse's debut set

Salahdine Parnasse's highly anticipated UFC debut is officially confirmed following successful weigh-ins at UFC Paris. The former KSW champion will headline his first event in the promotion against veteran lightweight Dan Hooker on September 5, with both fighters making weight at 155 pounds. Parnasse (23–2) has entered rare territory as a UFC debutant headlining his inaugural card—a testament to his status as one of the promotion's biggest free agent signings in recent years. The 28-year-old French fighter is currently riding a five-fight winning streak that includes knockout victories over Kenneth Cross, Marcin Held, and Marian Ziolkowski, all while training out of Atch Academy.

Hooker (24–14), nicknamed "The Hangman," faces an uphill battle in his bid to stop Parnasse's debut run. The 36-year-old New Zealand veteran has dropped back-to-back fights to Arman Tsarukyan and Benoit St. Denis and will need to prove he still has competitive gas left in the tank. Both men weighed exactly 155 pounds, with all 14 bouts on the UFC Paris card officially confirmed after every fighter made weight.

The event streams live on Paramount+ with prelims beginning at noon ET and the main card at 3 p.m. ET.
