Farès Ziam (born March 21, 1997) is a French mixed martial artist who competes in the Lightweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship.

Background

Born into a Franco-Algerian family in 1997, he was a fan of mixed martial arts and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. It was a family affair, with everyone involved in combat sports. His father, Taïeb, who was a former pro boxer that hung up his gloves in the 2000s, has of course had something to do with it. His stepfather did Brazilian jiu-jitsu while his two brothers did Muay Thai. At 12, Ziam began practising combat sports with full contact. At 13, he began doing Brazilian jiu-jitsu, kickboxing and MMA once or twice a week. Starting at 14, he did judo, BJJ and kickboxing for 3 years, he then joined the Ezbiri team in Villeurbanne to do MMA professionally.[3][4]

Mixed martial arts career

Early career

Starting his professional MMA career in 2014, Ziam compiled a 10–2 record fighting mostly in the regional European scene, winning the HIT and LFC lightweight championships in the process.[5]

Ultimate Fighting Championship

Ziam, as a replacement for Magomed Mustafaev, made his promotional debut against Don Madge on September 7, 2019, at UFC 242 in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.[6] Ziam lost the fight by unanimous decision.[7]

Ziam faced Jamie Mullarkey at UFC Fight Night: Ortega vs. The Korean Zombie on October 18, 2020. He won the fight via unanimous decision.[8]

Ziam faced Luigi Vendramini on June 12, 2021, at UFC 263.[9] He won the fight via majority decision.[10]

Ziam was scheduled to face Terrance McKinney on November 20, 2021, at UFC Fight Night 198.[11] However, one of McKinney's cornermen got COVID-19 the day of the bout and it was scrapped.[12] The pairing was rescheduled and eventually took place at UFC Fight Night 202 on February 26, 2022.[13] Ziam lost the bout via first round rear-naked choke.[14]

Ziam faced Michal Figlak on September 3, 2022 at UFC Fight Night 209.[15] He won the fight via unanimous decision.[16]
