PFL MENA 10 takes place on Friday, 10th July 2026, at Boulevard Studios in Riyadh, after being postponed from its original June date in Jeddah. The event is built around Hattan Alsaif’s professional MMA debut, with tournament quarterfinals also giving the card real competitive weight.
Main Event
Hattan Alsaif enters the main event undefeated as an amateur, holding a 4-0 record and a strong regional reputation. She has become one of the most talked-about Saudi fighters because of her explosive striking and repeated knockout finishes.
Dania Ouhachi brings a more experienced professional résumé into the matchup at 1-1. That creates an interesting showcase dynamic: Alsaif has the hype and momentum, while Ouhachi has the benefit of already being tested in the pro ranks.
The bout is set at a 110-pound catchweight, which makes it feel more like a carefully staged debut showcase than a full divisional contest. Even so, the attention on Alsaif means the fight could end up being the night’s defining moment.
Tournament Focus
The card is not just about the main event. It also includes key first-round quarterfinal bouts in the 2026 PFL MENA welterweight and featherweight tournaments, which gives the event a deeper sporting purpose.
Welterweight quarterfinals include Hassan Shaaban vs. Hazem Kayyali, Badreddine Diani vs. Yousef Adel, Omar Hussein vs. Ahmed Darwish, and Wissame Akhmouch vs. Abdelkrim Zouad. The featherweight side features Elias Boudegzdame vs. Hussein Salem and Shadi Kabbani vs. Ahmed Tarek.
That tournament structure is important because it turns the card into a launch point for the season. Fighters are not just competing for a win — they are fighting to advance in a bracket that will shape the rest of the series.
Co-Main And Undercard
The flyweight showcase between Malik Basahel and Imad El Azami gives the card a strong supporting attraction. It helps balance the main event’s spotlight with another matchup that can keep momentum high.
Rayan Atmani vs. Eslam Mostafa Abdel Menem adds another preliminary-level bout to the lineup, along with Saud Almolhem vs. Abdelhalim Elhoufy at featherweight. Together, those fights round out a card that blends showcase bouts with tournament action.
Final Outlook
PFL MENA 10 has a strong mix of promotional significance and tournament stakes. Alsaif’s debut is the headline attraction, but the quarterfinal bouts underneath it make the card feel meaningful beyond a single showcase.
If Alsaif delivers on the hype, this event could become an important moment in her rise and in the growth of PFL MENA in Saudi Arabia.
