During a recent visit to Team Nogueira in Dubai, ArabsMMA’s Zahi Ephrem bumped into Emirati MMA fighter Ali Ahli as he was finishing his boxing class to come across some good news. Seems that Ahli will be back after all! A very hard debut at Desert Force against a top competitor like Anas Siraj Mounir took him away from the spotlights, but this guy is surely a different kind of beast. Well, the good news for the UAE crowds might as well be a big concern for the fellow fighters, rumor has it that Ahli might be dropping to lightweight (70Kg)!
