BRAVE Combat Federation’s fight week continued in Bahrain as athletes for BRAVE CF 101: KHK Legacy II took to the scale and squared off one final time ahead of Sunday’s event at Khalifa Sports City. The promotion rolls on with momentum after its historic BRAVE CF 100 milestone card, returning with a stacked lineup featuring Bahrain’s finest talents against top international contenders.

Ten bouts are set for the card, including nine professional clashes and one amateur opener. The atmosphere on stage carried mutual respect, but the tension spiked during face-offs, providing a preview of the intensity expected once the cage door closes.

One of the standout moments came when Khalifa Janahi and Ahmed Waheed Ahmed faced off. Waheed screamed in Janahi’s face, prompting Janahi to shove him before officials quickly intervened. The moment stopped short of escalation but signaled a heated battle ahead in their super welterweight matchup.

History awaits at KHK Legacy II

In a landmark moment for Bahraini mixed martial arts, twins Khalifa and Abdulrahman Janahi are set to compete on the same BRAVE CF card for the first time. Their presence highlights Bahrain’s growing talent pipeline and offers a special home-soil moment for the Kingdom’s MMA scene.

Another face-off drew attention as India’s Punyajit Likharu and Pakistan’s Aqib Awan came together with intensity and respect. Their meeting echoed one of South Asia’s longest-running sporting rivalries, creating a compelling storyline ahead of fight night.

Fireworks expected in the cage

Murad Guseinov and Ali Hussein Nedal pushed tensions even higher as their face-off briefly turned physical before officials separated them. The moment underscored the stakes and set expectations for an explosive exchange inside the cage.

In the main event, Muhammad Idrisov and Marciano Ferreira delivered a focused and respectful staredown, neither man breaking eye contact. With newly crowned BRAVE CF Flyweight World Champion Muhammad Mokaev at the top of the division, both contenders know a strong performance could propel them closer to title contention.

BRAVE CF 101: KHK Legacy II is poised to continue the promotion’s strong momentum, following its landmark 100th event, and further spotlight Bahrain’s growing MMA legacy against elite worldwide opposition.
