Axel Sola is a 28-year-old French lightweight and former ARES FC champion (four title defenses) who trains at Boxing Squad in Nice under Aldric Cassata. He stopped Rhys McKee in his UFC debut on home soil in September 2025, dropped a decision to Mason Jones in March 2026, then bounced back immediately with a slick first-round D'Arce choke over Ismael Bonfim in July 2026. He called for a return to Paris off that win and gets it in the co-main event against countryman Farès Ziam.
