As Frontkick and Maximum Sports recently revealed, MMA talent Arlind Berisha will make his highly anticipated professional debut at Wolf Fight Promotion 6.

Now it’s set that he takes on hometown hero Mehdi Abadli in a light heavyweight bout that will serve as the headliner.

The 22-year-old Norwegian-Albanian Berisha already won heavyweight gold at the 2021 Junior World Cup in Prague. He has also competed in Warriors Academy South East, where he became both light heavyweight and heavyweight champion, and in Gorilla FC where he won the light heavyweight belt.

Halmstad’s Abadli made his professional debut at WPF 4 last year, in a tough fight against Kevin Munje.
