Brave moves to UAE for first time

ManamaBrave Combat Federation will land in Abu Dhabi, UAE for the first time on 31 March and an historic night, with Masio Fullen and Elias Boudegzdame battling it out at Brave 4: Unstoppable to become the promotion’s first world champion at 145 pounds (featherweight).

This five-round championship bout, which airs live on BraveFights.com from IPIC Arena At Zayed Sports City, is also a must see because it pits brave’s top featherweights against each other, as the former UFC fighter Masio “Lobo” Fullen squares off with the most hyped and highly talented Arab featherweight, Elias Boudegzdame from Algeria.

The pride of Guadalajara, Mexico, Fullen, is one of the most experienced combat sports athlete in the promotion. 

A veteran of 17 MMA fights and widely considered to be an all-time great, made his promotional debut at Brave 1 “The Beginning” last September,  when he shocked the world with a first round TKO (technical knockout) of India’s most popular fighter Abdul Muneer that earned him this title shot. 

Next month Fullen can make headlines once again if he can defeat Boudegzdame to become the first ever Brave Combat Federation title holder.
