Meanwhile, the co-main event will see French fan-favorite Benoit Saint Denis face rising lightweight finisher Mauricio Ruffy. Elsewhere on the card, highly touted Cage Warriors featherweight champion Harry Hardwick makes his UFC debut in a short-notice 155-pound clash against Kaue Fernandes.
Ahead of UFC Paris, the official weigh-ins were held Friday morning at the UFC host hotel in the ‘City of Light”. Both headliners, Imavov and Borralho, hit the 185-pound mark exactly. Meanwhile, Saint Denis weighed in at 155 pounds, and Ruffy hit the 156-pound lightweight limit, making their bout official without issue.
