Al-Ammari achieved victory over Lounis by knockout at the first minute and 5 seconds of the second round, in her first participation in the Catch weight category within the competitions of the 11th edition of the championship, which was held on Friday evening at the "Global" stage in Boulevard City in Riyadh.
Regarding the rumors about her nationality, Al-Ammari said: "I am proud of all Arab countries, but I am Saudi through and through. The slight difference in my accent is due to the fact that my mother lived in Lebanon, and I am proud to represent my country."
The Saudi fighter spoke about her assessment of her performance in the fight, saying: "This is not the level I wanted to present, frankly, despite my knockout victory, but I thank God for the win and for achieving what I said, and the future is better."
Al-Ammari’s victory was praised by Gustavo Firmino, Vice President of Fighter Affairs and Director of Fights at the Professional Fighters League.
