Morocco’s Badreddine Diani and Salah Eddine Hamli will aim to claim PFL MENA gold when the Professional Fighters League (PFL) holds its season finale, PFL MENA Finals: All or Nothing, at the Dhahran Expo in Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia on 5 December.
Diani faces Kuwait’s Mohammad Alaqraa in the welterweight final, hoping to avenge a previous defeat and secure the PFL MENA Championship Belt and $100,000. Alaqraa enters off a rapid 21-second TKO over Ayman Galal, while Diani reached the final after a hard-fought split decision against Amir Fazli.

In the co-main event, Hamli will contest the lightweight title against undefeated Iraqi Mohammad Fahmi. The Moroccan grappler, who submitted Souhil Tairi in the semifinals, is aiming to continue his perfect record and claim the league’s top prize. Fahmi also comes into the final with an unblemished record, having secured his spot via submission.
