Dakota Ditcheva to Return at PFL: Road to Dubai on Feb. 7

One of Professional Fighters League’s biggest stars will be back in action early next year.

Former flyweight champion Dakota Ditcheva will face Denise Kielholtz in a featured pairing at PFL Road to Dubai 5 on Feb. 7 at Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The promotion announced the booking, which is a non-title affair, on Monday. Ditcheva had been sidelined since suffering a broken hand in a unanimous decision victory over Sumiko Inaba at PFL Capetown on July 19.

PFL: Road to Dubai 5 is headlined by a lightweight championship clash between Usman Nurmagomedov and Alfie Davis, while Ramazan Kuramagomedov and Shamil Musaev will vie for welterweight gold in the co-main event.
