Paris face-off cancelled: Aziz Ndiaye threatens Sa Thiès with severe sanctions

A promotional face-off between Siteu and Sa Thiès, scheduled for 18 October in Paris ahead of their 3 January 2027 bout, did not take place after both wrestlers were absent. Aziz Ndiaye of Albourakh Events said Siteu could not attend because of visa-related administrative problems, but accused Sa Thiès of missing the event without justification despite being in Paris. Ndiaye said Sa Thiès had received a 65 million CFA franc advance on his fight purse and threatened severe sanctions, whose details have not yet been announced.
