Arab superstar Fakhreddine wants Brave title

ManamaBrave Combat Federation welterweight fighter Mohammad Fakhreddine from Lebanon has recovered from his knee injury and when returns in March is targeting an immediate title fight in Brave 3 hosted by Curitibain Brazil.

He believes that Carl Booth has made the most impact in the welterweight division, and he wants to fight him for the Brave title.

“That’s really what I want, to go straight after Carl Booth. If not him whoever the promotion grants a title shot,” Fakhreddine said. 

“I think Booth is going to have his chance after his big win on Gaziev. I want to fight him and show all the Brave fans that the Lebanese hype is real.”

Booth gained a ton of confidence and respect after his win over Gadzhimusa Gaziev last December, as it came via knockout. Gaziev came into this fight as the man to beat after defeating the formerly undefeated Thiago Vieira.

Fakhreddine (8-1) probably has plenty of options on the table for his next fight and one of the most popular names in the Middle East.

“I know what I’m capable of after my knee has been broken down. 

“Now, I’m just as good as I ever was, if not better. 

“So I’m excited to come back and win that title. 

“I am the best welterweight in the Middle East, and at this point in my career, I want to fight the cream de la cream. If people want to see my fight Jarrah, they’re going to have to wait as its all about the Golden Brave Belt,” said Fakhreddine.
