One of the top up-and-coming talents from amateur MMA is now ready to make her name in the pros after signing for one of the top promotions in Europe.
Germany’s Alina Dalaslan started her amateur MMA career in 2023, then enjoyed a meteoric rise through the amateur ranks the following year, as she captured the German MMA Federation’s national title, then went on to win three fights in three days to capture the IMMAF women’s featherweight world championship at the 2024 World Championships in Uzbekistan.

Now Dalaslan has made the leap into the pro ranks, and will make her professional MMA debut for OKTAGON MMA when she competes at OKTAGON 68.
The event, which takes place on March 8 at the Hanns-Martin-Schleyer-Halle in Stuttgart, Germany, will feature local hero Christian Jungwirth as the popular welterweight takes on Marek Bartl in the main event.
Dalaslan also fights out of Stuttgart, and the 24-year-old will relish the opportunity to walk out on home soil as she looks to claim her first professional win.
Dalaslan does not yet have a confirmed opponent, but her inclusion on the OKTAGON 68 fight card is already official, as she joins a confirmed list of German stars including Jungwirth, Niklas Stolze, Jessin Ayari, Arijan Topallaj and Alan Omer.
