Coverage Differences

missed information

Arab News PK (West Asian) foregrounds Gabriel Sousa’s main-event submission and the event organization, whereas Arab News (West Asian) does not mention Sousa’s finish and instead highlights other winners such as Helena Crevar and Seilkhan Bolatbek, indicating differing emphases across the two reports.

tone/narrative

Arab News PK frames the night as an overall showcase and mentions organizers and dignitaries praising the quality of the event, while Arab News emphasizes individual match outcomes across the card, producing a more results-driven narrative.

Event results and highlights

Sousa's finish came after a night of competitive grappling across the card; the rear-naked choke highlighted his ability to close space and secure a submission under pressure.

The card also featured Daniel Barbosa's showcase victory over Haibula Aviev.

Seilkhan Bolatbek won a unanimous decision over Kenzo Biyong, underscoring the event's blend of submissions and decision battles.

Coverage Differences

narrative focus

Arab News PK (West Asian) highlights Sousa’s submission and Daniel Barbosa’s showcase win in the same breath, whereas Arab News (West Asian) places more explicit attention on other main-card and preliminary winners (for instance Helena Crevar and Seilkhan Bolatbek), reflecting divergent choices about which outcomes to foreground.

tone

Arab News PK uses evaluative language praising the overall level of competition (“high-level display of strength and skill”), while Arab News adopts a more matter-of-fact, match-by-match reporting tone.

ADXC 11 prelim recap

Beyond the main event, ADXC 11 showcased a geographically diverse roster and several tight prelim results, with winners from Brazil, the UAE and Kazakhstan.

Arab News' prelim rundown lists victories for Brazil's Arthur Souza, Emirati Ammar Al-Hosani, Brazil's Joao Arthur and others, illustrating the regional depth that filled the undercard alongside the headline submission finish.

Coverage Differences

coverage scope

Arab News (West Asian) gives a granular account of prelim winners across nationalities to illustrate card depth, while Arab News PK (West Asian) concentrates on headline outcomes and the event’s staging, meaning readers of each outlet may leave with different impressions of the event’s breadth versus its marquee moments.

unique/off-topic

Arab News PK uniquely notes the presence of tourism department dignitaries and the organizers’ promotional framing, whereas Arab News stays tightly on competitive outcomes without mentioning officials or award presentations.

ADXC 11 highlights

Gabriel Sousa's rear-naked choke finish to win the ADXC 11 main event is the defining moment reported by Arab News PK.

Arab News supplements that headliner with a broader ledger of winners and highlights across both the main and preliminary cards.

Together, the pieces portray ADXC 11 as both a night of standout submissions and a platform for regional talent development.

Each source, however, emphasizes different takeaways for readers.

Coverage Differences

contradiction/ emphasis

There is no factual contradiction between the sources about results presented here, but Arab News PK (West Asian) emphasizes the headline submission and organizational praise (e.g., dignitaries, high-level display), whereas Arab News (West Asian) emphasizes a wider set of match results and individual performances—different emphases rather than conflicting facts.

tone

Arab News PK uses promotional and celebratory language about the event presentation, while Arab News provides a concise match-results ledger; readers may therefore perceive Arab News PK as more event-focused and Arab News as more competition-focused.
