UAE Warriors 44 took place Saturday night, August 26, live from the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi and we witnessed another global MMA event featuring fighters representing over twenty nations from all over the globe.
In the main event, UFC veteran Alex da Silva (23-5) made quick work of opponent Bagysh Zharmamatov (8-3) thanks to a highly impression guillotine choke in the first minute. The Brazilian is now on a two-fight win streak in UAE Warriors and will have his sights set on the vacant welterweight title.
