I have always been attracted to danger.

‍

When I was young this would be in the form of fast cars and buggies, but one day I got reckless and it nearly cost me my life. 

I was only 16 then, and thanks to God, I was able to pull through. 

From that day on, I said I would still seek danger, but in a much safer way.

Growing up in Kuwait I had always wanted to practice martial arts, but was told I had to wait until I was older. I thought that would be when I was 18, but I joined the Police Academy so had to wait longer. 

Once I graduated, I was able to start training. I loved it. It was exactly the thrill I was seeking.  

Today, I dedicate my whole life to MMA – but I never fight alone. 

‍

Everything I do is for my family, my country, the Gulf, and all the other Arab Nations.

They get me through fights, training sessions, everything I do is for them.

The most precious fight to me was against Egyptian champion Ramadan Noaman, and thanks to God I won. It was the hardest fight I experienced. Inside the cage the people I fight for give me the power and energy I need to succeed. 

The thing that worries me the most is losing a fight.
