Georges Bardawil has become the first fighter from Lebanon to sign up to the bantamweight division of Brave Combat Federation.
Bardawil will be making his debut in the eleventh edition of Brave Combat Federation, at Minas Tenis Clube Arena at Belo Horizonte, Brazil on April 13.
He expressed delight at signing up with the Bahrain-based promotion, saying: “I signed with Brave CF because it is one of the best promotions now. The range of fights are competitive and will push the athletes to deliver their best.
“It is my chance to show the world and to dominate against global competition. There are many who are performing at a high level, but I will showcase a skillset to prove that I am on an another level, just mark my words.”

Considered as one of the best bantamweights in the Arab world, Bardawil is the only athlete to capture championships in two different promotions at the same time. He held championships of Cedar FC and Evolution Championship at the same time.
He is currently training at Tristar Lebanon for his upcoming bout in Brazil against Carlos Souza, who has eight victories in his nine appearances.
“I am training everyday for this fight. Definitely, my eyes are on the championship. I aim to be an ambassador of Mixed Martial Arts for my nation and for the region at large,” said Bardawil.
And being the sole representative of Lebanon in the fight card and at bantamweight division, Bardawil is determined to make a big impact.
“Lebanon will make a statement in the bantamweight division like never before. Good Luck, for my opponent and I cannot wait for the moment when the cage doors are shut and to dance together in the cage,” he said.
