BRAVE CF's iconic two-division champion, Mohammad Fakhreddine, is on a mission to etch his name further in MMA history. Having previously secured the Middleweight and Light Heavyweight titles in a groundbreaking feat between 2021 and 2022, Fakhreddine is now setting his sights on a historic run to claim a third-world title.

In a bold move, "The Latest" has directly challenged Super Welterweight champion Kamal Magomedov for a shot at the title. Taking to Instagram, Fakhreddine tagged both Magomedov and BRAVE CF, expressing his desire for a world title shot at the 79-kilogram weight class.

When questioned about his plans for the future, Fakhreddine floated the idea of adding another weight class title to his illustrious career, stating, "How about a third world title? BRAVE CF Super Welterweights, I'm coming for you."

Champion Kamal Magomedov swiftly responded to the challenge, cautioning Fakhreddine to "be careful what he wished for." Undeterred, the Lebanese legend stood his ground, emphasizing that this matchup is precisely what he desires. Fakhreddine envisioned a showdown between the "champ-champ" and the young, undefeated Super Welterweight king, deeming it a "great fight."

Both the former and current champions expressed their willingness to make the fight happen. However, the ultimate decision rests with the BRAVE Combat Federation as it plans for an eventful 2024, with announcements expected soon following the recent revelation of two BRAVE CF events scheduled for Slovenia in the coming year.
