Combat Profile

Farès Ziam, nicknamed "Smile," is a durable and well-rounded lightweight contender representing France. Training out of MMA Factory in Paris, he combines sharp Muay Thai with solid grappling fundamentals. Ziam announced his arrival in the UFC by securing a contract on Dana White's Contender Series and following up with impressive victories. His ability to absorb punishment while maintaining a high output volume makes him a difficult out for anyone in the division.

Tactical Advantage

Ziam exploits opponents who fade over time or lack the technical precision to crack his durable chin. He utilizes his length well on the feet to chip away at opponents before looking for takedown opportunities. Against wrestlers, his defensive grappling is savvy enough to keep the fight standing where he holds an advantage. He struggles slightly against elite finishers who can overwhelm his pace early in the fight.
