A welterweight clash between Jordanian Al Silawi and Swedish Carlsson has been added to Brave 2 ” Dynasty ” .
Jarrah Al Silawi (7-2) will square off with Erik Carlsson ( 5-1 ) at the event, which takes place Dec. 2 at Khalifa Sports City, Bahrain. The card is headlined by a featherweight title fight between Alan Omer and Masio Fullen, will be aired live and free on BraveFights.com.
Al Silawi has been a dominant welterweight the Middle East and will now be looking to do the same in Brave Combat Federation. CEO Mohammed Shahid and his team are thrilled with this capture as he’s both tough, entertaining and highly skilled in mixed martial arts. So far in his professional career, he has shown versatility in every fight and proven himself a very well-rounded fighter with excellent stand-up and lethal moves on the ground. His Jiuiitsu can’t be underestimated as he’s proved time and time again, particularly his execution of the Kimura which he used to finish Mohammed Fakhreddine and Rami Hamed. The latter was his most recent fight and he sunk in the deadly submission after just 1:30 of the first round – clinical.
He won four out of his last five bouts and he’s capable of finishing the fight anywhere. His style and fighting spirit will make him a huge draw in Brave.
While Al Silawi was making a name for himself in the Arab MMA scene, his Viking opponent Carlsson has become a prominent fighter in Sweden’s biggest promotions, in his home town Gothenburg. He’s won five out of his six professional fights and naturally become a very popular, highly regarded fighter in Sweden. This will be Carlsson’s first venture outside his home, but he comes armed with some dangerous weapons, namely his arms which he likes wrapping around the necks of his foes to choke them. He’s sunk in three chokes and is in his element when he gains top position, very adept at finding the submission finish and especially that neck. He can grapple and grind on the feet as well, and even though he prefers to take his opponents down, he proved he can bang in his last fight, dismantling his opponent, Mohammed Naemi, with his fists in the first round.
Al Silawi and Carlsson are two fighters, high on confidence, with interesting MMA records and both have a career crossroads clash in Bahrain for Brave 2: Dynasty on December 2nd.
