In the first ever event of BRAVE Combat Federation, Mohammad Atif ‘The Little Hawk’ scored a dominant decision victory over Sunny Khatri. The curtain raiser fight of the first ever ‘Brave Combat Federation’, saw a fast paced strawweight bout between Atif and Sunny. Atif, the KHK product who fights out of Bahrain was clearly the crowd favourite. He went ahead with his signature striking game. While Sunny Khatri was fighting his third professional bout of his career, it was the debut of Atif into his professional MMA career.
After a tentative feeling out process during the first two minutes, Atif began pushing the pace landing low kicks and powerful strikes to Sunnys’ body and head. Sunny was clearly not very comfortable with the aggressive onslaught and circled around the perimeter of the fence in an attempt to avoid the oncoming strikes. Sunny attempted to slow down the aggression in the 2nd round with a big overhand right which was swiftly countered by the ‘Little Hawk’. After a swift barrage of punches Atif was again taking complete control of the fight. Scoring with a variety of strikes during the third round including a flying knee Atif secured scores way past Sunny Khatri.
