Hexagone MMA sets up at the Zenith Paris – La Villette on Saturday, October 24, 2026, with the vacant flyweight title in the main event: unbeaten Samba Sima against Leopold Goi. In the co-main event, Paul Dena returns to the cage after the first knockout loss of his career.
Who is in the Hexagone MMA 48 main event?
Samba Sima (4-0) against Leopold Goi (8-3), for the vacant flyweight title (-57 kg), over five rounds.
Sima, 23, from Rueil-Malmaison, has won all four of his professional fights inside the distance and gets the first title shot of his career. Goi, based in Mantes-la-Ville, has been here before: in February in Aix-en-Provence, he was stopped in seven seconds by Brazil's Romero dos Reis in a fight for this same belt, vacant since.
How does Paul Dena come back?
Against French-Moroccan Bilal Labid (3-1), at bantamweight.
Paul Dena (3-1) comes off his first professional loss: on June 12 at the LDLC Arena in Lyon, in front of more than 12,000 fans, Anzor Baybatyrov knocked him out in 1:38 of the first round, after a rivalry played out on social media. Labid, a former kickboxing champion, has two wins by TKO.
