Kawthar Halbi, the first Arab female boxing promoter in the world, has organised a fight card with 18 boxers lined for the inaugural Kings Clash, to be held at The Agenda, Dubai, on Friday.


Halbi's promotion Kings Corner is promising a fun-filled family event, though the fighters will go all out in an attempt to enhance their rankings in the boxing world, under the sanction of the Middle East Boxing Association (MEBA).


At the heart of the action is Egyptian-American Ahmed Elbiali, known as "The American Pharaoh", the undefeated powerhouse with a 23-0 record going against Argentina's Guillermo Andino (19-9).


The night will unite Egypt's finest alongside a diverse roster of international talent, highlighted by a prestigious WBA-sanctioned belt fight between Venezuelan contender Williams Flores and Filipino powerhouse Froilan Saludar, setting the stage alight in Dubai.


The co-main event features Venezuelan WBA contender Flores facing off in a high-stakes WBA-sanctioned belt fight. The main card also includes India's Faizan Anwar and Egyptian talent Mostafa Fahmi.


The undercard is packed with rising talent, including three determined Egyptians, Turkey's Kerem Ozmen, and British sensation Shiloh Defreitas, each bringing unique styles and fierce energy to the ring. "At Kings Corner, our vision is to champion talent that deserves to be seen on the world stage," said Halbi.


Kings Clash will be a series of boxing events aimed at promoting boxing talent and providing skilled ex-Olympians, seasoned fighters, and new contenders the opportunity to shine and reach their potential. The plan is to hold 10 more events as part of this series through the end of 2025.
