Cedric Doumbe stood in the center of the ring. This is when his opponent Willis charged at him. Doumbe dodged Willisโ€™s punch with extreme precision, moving his body at the last second. This caused Willis to tumble to the canvas with the force of his missed punch. Doumbeโ€™s timing and precision were nothing short of spectacular. Victor Wembanyama was watching this, his mouth gaping wide open, shocked by what he had witnessed.

Doumbe is not just a French national treasure but an accomplished Glory Kickboxing legend. Dana Whiteโ€˜s UFC was also interested in adding him to their roster. However, the negotiations failed between the two parties.

Doumbeโ€™s fights have garnered the attention of high-ranking celebrities. This showcased his pull on the nation of France. Nevertheless, the French athletes have always come out to support Doumbe during his fights. This time, it was Wembanyama; it was Kylian Mbappe last time.
