MMA: Salahdine Parnasse, the "Mbappé of MMA," special guest
A great moment for Mondial Sports! The new sensation of mixed martial arts, who recently made a mark with a stunning victory in early September 2026 in Paris, will join us this Saturday.
One round, 2 minutes and 35 seconds of fighting, and a knockout that ignited the Accor Arena! On September 5, 2026, during UFC Paris, Salahdine Parnasse seized the opportunity to shine in front of his home crowd in the City of Light! In his first bout within the Ultimate Fighting Championship, the Aubervilliers native did not disappoint against New Zealander Dan Hooker.
Anticipating great performances
It is an understatement to say that Salahdine Parnasse is eagerly awaited! At 28 years old, he already enjoys a solid reputation among mixed martial arts enthusiasts, bolstered by his numerous triumphs in another renowned federation, KSW. Now, he aims to reach even greater heights.
A true product of MMA
But where does the one who claims to be "the best fighter in the world" come from? A bit from the Paris region, a bit from Morocco (his mother's homeland), and a bit from Guadeloupe (his father's homeland). He is also a pure product of MMA, although he occasionally tries his hand at boxing.
In an interview with Xavier Foupa-Pokam, a pioneer of MMA in France and consultant for RFI, Salahdine Parnasse opens up and shares his ambitions in Mondial Sports!
The audio will be available on the page starting Saturday, 26/9 at 19:05.
