Manama : Gadzhimusa Gaziev has signed to face the former UFC fighter, Leonardo Mafra at Brave 12: KHK Legacy hosted in Jakarta, Indonesia. 

Gaziev had moved to the Middleweight division of Brave Combat Federation after three bouts in the welterweight division of the promotion. 

Gaziev debuted in the first edition of Brave Combat Federation as a replacement for Mohammad Fakhreddine, to face Thiago Vieira. 

In the bout, Gaziev shocked the fans by handing over the first defeat in the career of Thiago Vieira.
