One man’s ‘money-based’ agenda is misrepresenting MMA, says BRAVE CF president

It sounds like BRAVE CF’s president, Mohammed Shahid, doesn’t believe UFC 249 should be taking place at all, given the current global pandemic.

Countries all around the world have seen their normal, day-to-day lives turned totally on their head due to the COVID-19 outbreak. There is virtually no industry which hasn’t been affected by the virus. The sports landscape has all but ground to a halt with no easy way to mitigate risk for athletes.

Most major promotions have either cancelled or postponed their shows over the coming weeks including BRAVE CF, who put on events all over the world.
