The Bahraini prince is known for leading by example and embracing his initiatives and he is no stranger to competing in combat sports. He won two MMA bouts in Bahrain.

In 2016, Sheikh Khalid successfully made his MMA debut with a first-round knockout. In 2017, he competed again and improved his professional MMA record to 2 wins and 0 loss.

In 2018, Sheikh Khalid changed the small MMA gloves to the 12oz ones and stepped into the ring for his first boxing match. In a contest also held in Bahrain, he won via unanimous decision.

Sheikh Khalid is also the First Deputy President of the Supreme Council for Youth and Sports of Bahrain. Apart from his personal endeavors in the combat sports and his pivotal role in getting Brave CF to the top of the MMA world, he is also the founder of KHK MMA, KHK Sports and KHK Boxing.

Details about Sheikh Khalid’s upcoming boxing match including the exact date of the event and his opponent are yet to be announced. Here is a clip featuring the Bahraini prince:
