Brave Combat Federation was established on September 23, 2016 and is the largest MMA promotion in Bahrain.
Boasting a roster of fighters hailing from an incredible 28 different nations, the company will soon host it's 16th event, Brave 16 from the United Arab Emirates.
BCF is quickly becoming an international powerhouse having already hosted events throughout several continents in such countries as Colombia, India and Northern Island.
BCF has arrived. The following slideshow looks at the four best fighters currently on the promotion's books.
#4 Hamza Kooheji
Bahrain's superstar MMA fighter, Hamza Kooheji is a sensation in the Middle East and is one of the region's finest combatants.
Despite losing his most recent fight back in May 2018, his first for BCF, Kooheji is still well positioned to take BCF by storm.
Equally adept at wrestling, striking and submissions, Kooheji has every tool in the arsenal to make an even bigger splash in the promotion than he already has.
The 26 year old is well positioned to challenge for the Bantamweight Championship in the near future for what what would be a blockbuster match up with the current defending Champion, Stephen Loman.
One for the present and future. Koohji is here to stay.
#3 Mohammad Fakhreddine
Lebanon's favourite son, Mohammad Fakhreddine is astonishingly famous in his home country and possesses a fearsome MMA record of 10-2.
The homegrown superstar, recently enjoyed a seven match unbeaten run before he was also halted in his most recent bout versus Tahar Hadbi in March 2018 at Brave 10: The Kingdom Rises.
Fakhreddine has the opportunity to bounce back next week in an upcoming encounter with Gadzhimusa Gaziev at Brave 16 on September 21, 2018.
That bout should be something to behold as both are striking experts with devastating punching power.
Fakhreddine has previously stopped seven opponents out of his 10 victories by KO and will back himself to win at Brave 16 also.
Few would bet against him. Fakhreddine is one of the biggest names and best fighters in the promotion.
#2 Stephen Loman
Stephen Loman is BCF's Bantamweight Champion and is currently enjoying a five match winning streak.
"The Sniper" is the man to beat in the promotion defeating all comers since his debut at Brave 1: Bahrain on September 23, 2016.
Loman can beat an opponent in every way possible and often does, with his outstanding cardiovascular conditioning being his greatest weapon, routinely wearing opponents down for decisive decision victories. Having lost just two fights in his entire six year MMA career, and none in the past two and a half years, Loman is the undisputed star of BCF and will be for many years to come.
#1 Lucas Martins
The former UFC superstar debuted in BCF on March 18, 2017 defeating Fabian Galvan with a choke. He followed this victory up by winning the Interim Lightweight Championship against Luan Santiago.
Martins boasts an impressive 20-3 record and boasts top level experience from his 7 UFC fights which will likely lead him to even greater heights in BCF.
Expect Martins to win the Lightweight Championship outright when he receives the opportunity.
Unquestionably the biggest star and best fighter in the company.
