French promotion ARES FC is back during a busy week for fight fans with another event hosted at the ARES Studio.
ARES FC 26 will see them crown a new women's flyweight champion in the main event on October 24.
France's Alexandra Tekenah has had all of her pro fights in ARES, going 5-1 with 3 finishes.
After suffering a loss in her third fight, Tekenah has rebounded with three impressive wins and now looks to add gold to her resume.
In the opposite corner, Brazil's Jady Menezes may have less experience in MMA but she does have a kickboxing background that makes her an extremely dangerous opponent to strike with.
She previously competed in GLORY as recently as 2019 where she shared the ring with current ONE Championship star Anissa Meksen on three occasions after beating her in their second encounter.
In the co-main event, undefeated Serbian Nikola Joksović puts his 15-0 record on the line against rising French welterweight, Ramazan Mustafaev.
Mustafaev returns to the promotion after making his debut back in March of 2023 whereas his opponent has remained much more active.
After last fighting on ARES in May last year, Joksović made the switch to fighting in FNC where he became the welterweight champion, defended the belt twice with two submission wins and is now back in his former home.
French light heavyweights clash as Paulin Begai takes on Salim El Ouassaidi along with Abou Tounkara vs Mateus Linhares and a heavyweight bout between Benjamin Šehić and Moreno Kacapour rounding out the main card.
The action is set to kick off today, October 24, via UFC Fight Pass at 7PM in the UK.
