JEDDAH: A Saudi fighter battled through a broken rib to triumph at a mixed martial arts event held in Jeddah on Friday. Athletes from more than a dozen countries took part in Brave Combat Federation 33 at Prince Abdullah Al-Faisal Stadium, with Mustafa Rashed Neda and Abdullah Al-Qahtani triumphing on home turf.
But featherweight Al-Qahtani said the journey had been difficult. “I had broken a rib, but it all worked out,” he told Arab News.
