Sadibou Sy

Sadibou Sy, a mixed martial artist with Senegalese roots, grew up in a large family with six siblings in Sweden. He initially played football before transitioning to martial arts when he was in his teens. Sy began training at Wasa Martial Arts Center, focusing on kickboxing and later competed in Thai boxing. From the age of 13 until February 2017, Sy only had between 20 and 40% vision.{{Cite web |last=Sherdog.com |title=Sadibou Sy's Quest for PFL Glory |url=https://www.sherdog.com/news/articles/Sadibou-Sys-Quest-for-PFL-Glory-158001 |access-date=2023-04-27 |website=Sherdog |language=en}} He was then fitted with contact lenses to alleviate the chronic inflammation he suffered from. The lenses gave him about 80% vision and since then, he says his progress has been "huge".{{Cite web |last=Taliercio |first=Johan |date=2018-09-10 |title=Sadibou Sy tävlade med 30 procents synförmåga: "Tänkte inte på det" |url=https://www.mmanytt.se/exklusivt/sadibou-sy-tavlade-med-30-procents-synformaga-tankte-inte-pa-det/ |access-date=2023-04-25 |website=MMAnytt.se |language=sv-SE}}{{Cite web |title="Ulf Kristersson vet nog inte vem jag är" |url=https://www.expressen.se/sport/mma/sadibou-sy-historisk-trots--kroniska-ogonsjukdomen/ |access-date=2023-04-27 |website=www.expressen.se |date=February 2023 |language=sv}} Despite his vision problems, he started competing in martial arts at the age of 15.{{Cite web |date=2020-08-04 |title=Sadibou Sy |url=http://www.fighterinterviews.com/sv/intervjuer/2016/12/sadibou-sy |access-date=2023-04-25 |url-status=usurped |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200804134407/http://www.fighterinterviews.com/sv/intervjuer/2016/12/sadibou-sy |archive-date=2020-08-04 }}{{Cite web |last=Al-Shatti |first=Shaun |date=2018-07-04 |title=Kickboxing stud Sadibou Sy shooting for an MMA coming out party at PFL 3 |url=https://www.mmafighting.com/2018/7/4/17519740/kickboxing-stud-sadibou-sy-shooting-for-an-mma-coming-out-party-at-pfl-3 |access-date=2023-04-25 |website=MMA Fighting |language=en}}

Sy has worked various jobs throughout his career, but now focuses on training at the Martial Arts Lab in Östermalm, where he also works as a personal trainer. Sy's goal is to minimize his work commitments and concentrate on his MMA career, aiming to secure better pay and sponsorships.

On October 13, 2012, Sy faced Corentin Jallon at Supremacy League in Stockholm, Sweden, for the vacant WKN Oriental rules Cruiserweight title.{{cite news|url=https://solidsport.com/supremacy/watch/sadibou-sy-for-supremacy-rising?locale=nb|title=Sadibou Sy for Supremacy Rising|date=11 October 2012|work=Solid Sport}}{{cite news|url=http://www.supremacyleague.com/events/supremacy-rising/|title=Supremacy League - Supremacy Rising|accessdate=8 May 2020|work=Supremacy League}}{{cite news|url=https://www.worldkickboxingnetwork.com/champion/european-oriental-rules-cruiserweight/|title=Sadibou Sy - World Kickboxing Network|accessdate=9 May 2020|work=World Kickboxing Network}}

Before transitioning to MMA, Sy won both the World Championship and World Championship (B) in Thai boxing in 2010. He also claimed the ISKA (International Sport Karate & Kickboxing Association) World Championship title in 2008 and 2010.{{Cite web |date=2010-12-03 |title=Svenskt VM-guld i thaiboxning |url=https://www.aftonbladet.se/a/On6Ggk |access-date=2023-04-25 |website=www.aftonbladet.se |language=sv}} Sy began his MMA career in Stockholm-based organization IRFA (International Ring Fight Arena) and amassed a 2–1 record before joining Superior Challenge.{{Cite web |last=Cavian |first=Mazdak |date=2013-08-18 |title=Sadibou Sy gör MMA-debut på IRFA 5 |url=https://www.mmanytt.se/sverige/sadibou-sy-gor-mma-debut-pa-irfa-5/ |access-date=2023-04-25 |website=MMAnytt.se |language=sv-SE}} In his debut at SC 12, he defeated Englishman Carl Booth via first-round TKO.{{Cite web |last=Staff |first=MMA Viking |date=2015-05-18 |title=Cageside photos : Sadibou Sy vs Carl Booth at SC 12 |url=https://www.mmaviking.com/cageside-photos-sadibou-sy-vs-carl-booth-at-sc-12/ |access-date=2023-04-25 |website=Nordic MMA Everyday at MMA Viking |language=en-US}} After two fights with other organizations, Sy returned to Superior Challenge with a 6–2 record. At SC 14, he gained widespread attention for his viral head-kick KO against Welshman David Round. Sy continued his winning streak at SC 16, defeating Greek fighter Nikos Sokolis with another first-round TKO.

Sadibou Sy, boasting a 6–2 record, joined the Professional Fighters League (PFL) with an ambitious goal of winning the top prize of one million USD. He debuted against UFC and Bellator veteran Bruno Santos at PFL 3, ultimately losing via unanimous decision. In his second fight of the 2018 season at PFL 7, Sy defeated Brazilian Caio Magalhães with a first-round head kick KO, securing his spot in the playoffs. During the playoffs at PFL 10, he faced Santos once again, resulting in a draw but advancing due to PFL tiebreaker rules, before being eliminated by German Abusupiyan Magomedov via unanimous decision.{{Cite web |last=Lee |first=Alexander K. |date=2018-10-21 |title=PFL 10 results: Ray Cooper III makes finals with fourth straight KO |url=https://www.mmafighting.com/2018/10/21/18002782/pfl-10-results-ray-cooper-iii-makes-finals-with-fourth-straight-ko |access-date=2023-04-27 |website=MMA Fighting |language=en}}

He faced Ray Cooper III in the quarterfinals at PFL 7 on October 11, 2019, with the fight ending in a draw with Cooper advancing, due to PFL rules where the winner of the first round advances, which led to Sy's elimination from the 2019 playoffs.{{Cite web |last=Anderson |first=Jay |date=2019-10-11 |title=PFL 7 2019 Results: Ray Cooper III Advances Following Draw with Sadibou Sy |url=https://cagesidepress.com/2019/10/11/pfl-7-2019-results-cooper-vs-sy/ |access-date=2023-04-27 |website=Cageside Press |language=en-US}}

After the 2020 season was cancelled due to COVID, Sadibou returned at PFL 2 on April 29, 2021, against Nikolay Aleksakhin, with the bout ending in a no contest after an accidental eye poke in the second round led to Aleksakhin being unable to continue.{{Cite web |title=Sy and Aleksakhin Deemed No-Contest After Accidental Foul |url=https://www.pflmma.com/news/sy-and-aleksakhin-deemed-nocontest-after-accidental-foul |access-date=2023-04-27 |website=www.pflmma.com}}
