Chalid "Die Faust" Arrab (born May 28, 1975 in Cologne ) is a German mixed martial arts fighter. He is 1.79 m tall and weighs about 93 kg. His parents are from Morocco.
Chalid Arrab started with karate and kung fu at the age of eleven and was quickly discovered for boxing thanks to his strong rights . He moved to Bayer 04 Leverkusen and immediately became German heavyweight team champion . Well-known coaches in the German boxing scene tried to get him, but Chalid switched to wrestling . Trained in this way, he took part in the "Absolute Fighting Championships" in Russia in 2000 , which he was the first European to win. It was there that the organizers of the K-1 Grand Prix became aware of him. His greatest successes in the K-1 were winning the Grand Prix in Las Vegas 2006 and reaching the World Grand Prix Final 2006, where he was eliminated in the first fight against Ernesto Hoost , but only after the extra round. Hoost was a four-time winner of the K-1 World Grand Prix .
In 2007 he was unable to qualify for the World Grand Prix final due to a point defeat against Glaube Feitosa as well as in 2008 after a difficult knockout against Ruslan Karajew .
