Saadi opened the bout landing heavy calf kicks which forced the MMA veteran Yahya to change stances. The home town hero \u201cUAE Warrior\u201d responded with heavy straights to push his opponent back. The second round saw the two featherweight tournament competitors trade leg kicks, knees, and punches in combination in a closely contested contest. Yahya stung with sharp punches to control round 3 en route to a split decision loss.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The co-main event featured a lightweight tournament quarterfinal between Morocco\u2019s Salah Eddine Hamli and Algeria\u2019s Ylies Djiroun.
