Marcel Adur meets Velimurad Alkhasov for flyweight title at Brave 18

Brave Combat Federation will crown its first flyweight champion in November, when undefeated Russian talent Velimurad Alkhasov meets Brazil’s Marcel Adur at Brave 18, scheduled for Nov. 18 in Isa Town, Bahrain, Brave officials told MMA Fighting.

According to Brave officials, Brave 18 will also feature other two yet-to-be-announced championship bouts.

Alkhasov (5-0, 1 no-contest) debuted in the Brave cage in August, defeating Sean Santella via decision. Adur (14-4), on the other hand, is 3-0 with three stoppages under the promotion’s banner.

Adur vs. Alkhasov was targeted since the Russian’s successful debut at Brave 14, and the announcement during Alkhasov’s post-fight interview almost caused an injury to Adur.
