Cédric Doumbé will make his comeback this weekend, after his controversial defeat against Baki. The Franco-Cameroonian fighter had to give up because of a splinter in his foot which prevented him from fighting. He will face Jaleel Willis this Saturday, May 17, during the co-main event of Bellator Paris 2024, at the Accor Arena. The American with a ratio of 16 wins and 5 losses will be a real client for Doumbé who will want to rediscover the taste of victory.
The French fighter also had a resounding declaration before his fight. Asked about the legend of Irish MMA Connor McGregor, the Frenchman released a tirade of which he has the secret: “I am the face of French MMA like Conor (McGregor) was in Ireland. If I fought him, I think I would knock him out in the first round because he is a good fighter. When I fight a good fighter, I knock him out.” Let’s hope for him that he will not be denied by his performance on Saturday evening.
