Brave CF 12 to be held in Indonesia
Following a meeting between Shaikh Khalid and a delegation from the Republic of Indonesia, it was announced that BRAVE 12 will be held in Indonesia in May.
“Brave Combat Federation is not a competition with other promotions. #BraveCF is the name of the vision of His Highness Shaikh Khalid Bin Hamad Al Khalifa, and its focus is the fighters from every corner of the world and the beautiful sport of Mixed Martial Arts.”
– Mohammed Shahid, CEO of KHK Sports and the President of Brave Combat Federation
Since launching on September 23, 2016, at Khalifa Sports City Arena in Bahrain, BRAVE has enjoyed meteoric growth. In addition to Bahrain, events have been held in Brazil, India, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Mexico, and United Arab Emirates. To date, no event has been held in South East Asia.
However, following a meeting between Shaikh Khalid and a delegation from the Republic of Indonesia, it was announced that BRAVE 12 will be held in Indonesia in May.
The agreement to conduct the event was signed by Shahid, who posted the news on his social network.
Details of the fight card have not been revealed by BRAVE, but the athlete relations department explained that more fighters will be signed with the promotion from the region to compete at the event.
Shahid revealed that BRAVE intends to promote events in more locations worldwide still, with Europe and Africa hinted at, as well as further nations in South East Asia. The BRAVE boss considers multiple factors in determining event nation, including the creation of value for mixed martial arts, and the further globalization of the sport.
The next event is BRAVE 11 in Belo Horizonte, Brazil on 13 April. Earlier this year it was announced that the Kingdom of Bahrain will again host the IMMAF World Championships, in 2018.
