Ali AlQaisi Jordan’s Royal Fighter at Featherweight

At 34 years old, Ali AlQaisi stands as the #2 ranked MMA fighter in the Middle East & Africa region. Fighting out of American Combat Gym, the 5’6” (168 cm) featherweight has logged a professional record of 16-8-0. Known in the cage as “The Royal Fighter,” AlQaisi has cemented his place in regional rankings by competing at least twice in his last six bouts, each time pulling on his Jordanian flag.

AlQaisi’s consistency in the featherweight division is the backbone of his ascent. He’s appeared at 145 lb (66 kg) in two of his last two fights, earning him a spot not only in the broader Middle East & Africa standings but also in its tighter Middle East sub-region. His blend of experience and activity makes him one of the most recognizable fighters in his corner of the world, even as he eyes opponents who can push him further up the global ladder.
