In 2013, she captured the IRO European Title at Rumble of the North III by defeating Rachel Adamus through a unanimous decision.
During the 2016 World Fighting League 65 kg Tournament, Haddaoui triumphed over Sheena Widdershoven—who later became an Enfusion world champion—in the semifinals and then secured victory against Ilona Wijmans in the finals, both by unanimous decisions.
She regained the IRO World Title by besting Rachel Adamus once again at The Warriors 4 event via unanimous decision.
Competing in the Kunlun Fight Mulan Legend Tournament, Haddaoui won her quarter-final bout against Marisa Pires but was defeated by Laëtitia Madjene in the semifinals. Following Madjene's withdrawal from the final, Haddaoui faced Wang Kehan and emerged victorious with a unanimous decision.
In March 2018, she relinquished her WFL title to Michaela Michl after losing by unanimous decision.
