Muhammad Mokaev, one of the brightest talents in mixed martial arts, is making his return to BRAVE Combat Federation on December 13 at BRAVE CF 91. The announcement has sent shockwaves through the Flyweight division, with numerous fighters eager to test themselves against the undefeated star.

Among the challengers is former Bantamweight champion Jose ‘Shorty’ Torres, who has expressed interest in returning to Flyweight for a clash with Mokaev. On Instagram, Torres shared his thoughts, stating that the fight “makes sense,” given Mokaev’s dominance and the Flyweight division’s evolving landscape.

Adding to the excitement, Bidzina Gavashelishvili, fresh off an impressive win at BRAVE CF 84, is also campaigning for the matchup. Riding a two-fight winning streak, Gavashelishvili has solidified his place as a top contender in a division still searching for its inaugural champion.

Brazilian phenom Marciano Ferreira, undefeated since 2022, has taken a proactive approach, reaching out directly to BRAVE CF President Mohammed Shahid to request a bout with Mokaev. Ferreira’s recent first-round stoppage at BRAVE CF 78 underlines his readiness for the challenge.

Meanwhile, Irish standout Gerard Burns, boasting a four-fight winning streak with back-to-back stoppages, has also entered the conversation, setting the stage for a potential showdown with Mokaev.

A Division Packed with Talent

The Flyweight division is brimming with contenders capable of providing Mokaev a tough test. From Combat Sambo Champion Velimurad Alkhasov to Brazilian talent Flavio de Queiroz, and African Judo medalist Luthando Biko, the depth of the division is undeniable. Russian veteran Ali Bagautinov and Turkish newcomer Alperen Karabulut, who even created custom fight posters to challenge Mokaev, add further intrigue to the mix.

What’s Next for Mokaev?

As Mokaev prepares for his BRAVE CF return at the prestigious BRAVE CF 91, part of the BRAVE International Combat Week, fans are eager to see who will share the cage with him. The event will also feature BRAVE CF 92 on December 15 and the IMMAF Youth Asian Championships, promising a week of exhilarating action in Bahrain.

With the Flyweight division heating up and Mokaev’s undefeated streak on the line, December 13 promises to be a pivotal moment in the future of BRAVE Combat Federation.
