My followers after placing their bets on the exact opposite of my predictions for UFC Fight Night: Hooker vs. Parnasse

3/8 on prelims 😭 UFC FIGHT NIGHT: HOOKER VS. PARNASSE WAS EVERYTHING PARIS WANTED. A legendary UFC veteran. A former two-division KSW champion making his UFC debut. A packed Accor Arena. And one massive opportunity. Salahdine Parnasse vs. Dan Hooker was one of the most anticipated UFC debuts of 2026, with Parnasse finally stepping into the Octagon after dominating at KSW and winning championships at both featherweight and lightweight. Hooker, meanwhile, came in with years of UFC experience and a résumé built against the best lightweights in the world. Parnasse wasn't given an easy introduction to the UFC. He was thrown straight into a five-round main event against a ranked veteran in his home country. Hooker had the experience. Parnasse had the momentum. Paris had the atmosphere. And the rest of the card delivered too, with Fares Ziam vs. Axel Sola, Michael Page vs. Nursulton Ruziboev, Mario Pinto vs. Ryan Spann, Morgan Charriere vs. Felipe Lima and a stacked lineup of European talent. This was more than just another Fight Night. IT WAS THE UFC'S BIGGEST NIGHT IN PARIS. And with Parnasse finally making his UFC debut, the question was simple: DID WE JUST WATCH THE ARRIVAL OF UFC'S NEXT EUROPEAN SUPERSTAR?
