Pakistani Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) players exhibited dominance at the Brave CF 92 event, defeating all five Indian fighters with extraordinary displays of skill and determination.
Brave CF 92 in Bahrain, hosted by Sheikh Khalid bin Hammad Al Khalifa, has emerged as the largest sporting event of the year.
Featuring an electrifying lineup of five India-Pakistan fights, the event captivated audiences worldwide, with Rizwan Ali headlining the card in a historic main event that solidified his status as one of South Asia’s brightest MMA talents.
Rizwan Ali delivered a stunning knockout victory against Indian fighter Srikant Shekhar in the first round.
This win not only extended Rizwan Ali's undefeated streak but also marked the end of his opponent’s MMA career.
Speaking after the match, Rizwan said, "This is not just my victory but a triumph for Pakistan. I have proven that Pakistani fighters are second to none in the world."
Babur Ali added to the celebrations by defeating India's Mohammad Farhad in a bantamweight bout, securing his eighth career victory.
In the welterweight division, Abbas Khan overcame Indian fighter Seth Rosario, while Ismail Khan triumphed against Yadwinder Singh in the bantamweight category.
In the flyweight division, Awan Aqib claimed a victory over Indian fighter Ehtesham Ansari, completing a clean sweep for the Pakistani team.
This landmark event showcased the biggest-ever international card for Pakistani fighters, a milestone made possible through the strategic partnership between the Pakistan Mixed Martial Arts Federation (PakMMA) and Brave CF.
Earlier this year, Pakistan hosted Brave CF 85 in Lahore, a groundbreaking event that not only brought global recognition to Pakistan’s MMA scene but also set new standards for international sports events in the country.
