Brave Combat Federation completed the first event for 2018 in grand fashion in the heart of Amman, Jordan in front of a sold out arena.
Elias Boudegzdame was glorious in his first title defence. The featherweight from La Bonne Ecole submitted the former KSW fighter in the fourth round to retain his championship title.
In the co-main event, Jarrah Al Selawe and David Bear had a back and forth battle which would have ended in split decision. In the final seconds of the bout Jarrah Al Selawe trapped Bear in a triangle choke and won the high octane bout by submission thereby claiming his shot at the welterweight championship at Brave Combat Federation.
Jordan’s rising sensation Abdul Kareem Al Selwady dominated three rounds of action against Charlie Leary in front of a crowd that went wild supporting the hometown hero. In the greatest grudge match in the history of the promotion, Tahar settled scores with Fakhreddine by winning the bout by TKO.
The event was iconic due to the huge breakthrough in broadcasting achieved by the Bahraini-based sports media company.
The event witnessed Jordanian athletes competing at their best. With an impressive fight card, Brave Combat Federation has emerged as the unrivalled mixed martial arts leader in the Middle East.
Brazil
Meanwhile, Brave Combat Federation has announced the 11th edition of the event in Brazil.
The announcement was made during Brave 10 in Amman. The event will be hosted in Mineirinho Arena at Belo Horizonte, Brazil on April 13.
The event, by far the largest in Brazil, marks the return of the promotion for the third time to the country. Brazil has featured over 35 fighters so far in the editions of Brave and is the nation to host maximum number of Brave events.
Brave Combat Federation has announced aggressive expansion plans in 2018 including reaching out to new destinations and working closely with entertainment industries and business enterprises of the host nation.
