After breaking through as a top talent in 2024, Dakota Ditcheva will not remember 2025 as a career year.
Ditcheva (15-0) was recently forced to pull out of her women’s flyweight matchup with Denise Kielholtz at PFL: Road to Dubai on Feb. 7 due to an undisclosed injury. It came on the back end of the hand injury she sustained over the summer in a win against Sumiko Inaba, leaving the undefeated standout with some sorrow feelings.
