The PFL MENA bantamweight final just went down between Sweden’s Ali Taleb (12-1), who represents Iraq, and Morocco’s Rachid El Hazoume (15-4).
The fight barely started before Taleb hit his opponent with a hard left hook. Hazoume backed up against the cage and the Swede landed a picture perfect straight that dropped his opponent and then followed up woth a clean left before the referee stepped in and stopped the action.
Just like that, Ali Taleb is the PFL-Mena bantamweight champion.
“A dream come true,” Taleb said after the fight.
