The Professional Fighters League stretched its reach into the Middle East and North Africa with competitors like Ali Taleb in mind.
A six-figure payday now in sight, Taleb will square off with Jalal Al Daja in a PFL MENA 3 bantamweight semifinal this Friday at the PFL MENA Studio in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. He enters the cage with a sparkling 10-1 record, having secured eight of his 10 victories by knockout, technical knockout or submission. Taleb last saw action at PFL MENA 1, where he took a three-round unanimous decision from Nawras Abzakh in their May 10 quarterfinal and improved to 2-0 in his head-to-head series with the Jordanian.
