Since Youssef Zalal barely got damaged Saturday, Zalal can quickly return by fighting at Yas Island against another tough Featherweight. Zalal doesn’t mind short notice fights anyway
“I definitely like to stay busy,” said Zalal. “I like short notices. I feel like it doesn’t put all that pressure into training or that stuff at all. For me I love staying busy and having as many fights as possible.”

Dana White loves quickly returning young promising fighters back in the Octagon and Youssef Zalal is one of those promising fighters.

Impressive performance at Yas Island as United Arab Emirates has 100,000 Moroccans can be leverage for his next contract.
Youssef Zalal one of the UFC prospects that I’m HIGH on and looking forward to in the future.
