Another Arab fighter has been scheduled to fight abroad for an international mixed martial arts title.
Moroccan fighter Abdelai Aityachou (2-4-0) is signed to fight at Red Lions Fighting Championship (RLFC) against his opponent Boubacar “Blackout” Blade (13-11-0) for the promotions Light-Heavyweight title strap.

Aityachou, who has not had any action inside an MMA cage since early 2016, will finally get the opportunity to showcase his new set of acquired skills against a veteran of the sport who holds more than 20 professional fights, including a unanimous decision loss to Volkan Oezdemir, the former UFC light-heavyweight title contender. Known for competing in Desert Force, the Moroccan’s lengthy body type and BJJ skills can put any fighter in trouble.

Though both Aityachou and Boubacar are bouncing off a loss in their last fight, they are currently presented with a golden opportunity to turn things around for themselves and earn a title in a promotion that is gradually developing and building up its ranks. It’s clear that Boubacar is the obvious favorite to walk away with the win in this one, however, Aityachou not someone to be taken lightly. The Moroccan has been constantly evolving as a fighter and no doubt has the ability, as well as the necessary skill-set that is needed to pull off the upset against the French favorite to become the promotion’s Light-Heavyweight champ.
