Professional Fighters League star Cedric Doumbe fulfilled the expectations of his much-hyped arrival at PFL Europe 3. It took him a mere nine seconds to dispatch Jordan Zebo and announce his arrival on the PFL stage. However, beneath the surface of the flamboyant persona and flair he displays inside the cage, his journey has been shaped by adversity from the humble beginnings in the sun-kissed plains of Cameroon to the active streets of Paris.

Doumbe encountered skepticism from his widowed mother when he pursued combat sports. But he disregarded the dissenting voices, and with unwavering ambition, emerged as an unrivaled force in kickboxing, toppling giants and clinching several titles.
