E-Paper | May 02, 2026

Mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter Ahmed Mujtaba, aka 'The Wolverine' lost to China's Jia Wen Ma on the main card of ONE Championship: Visions of Victory in Malaysia on Friday.

In the second round, the Chinese fighter had Mujtaba locked in a rear-naked choke — a position Mujtaba could not get himself free from, eventually submitting.

It was the second defeat in three fights for the Quetta native whose career record now drops to 8-2.
