“I am thankful to Brave Combat Federation for this opportunity and InshaAllah I will not disappoint my country. I respect my opponent and I have seen his fights, he is a big strong guy but he never faced a guy like me.
“I know he is a great standup guy and love to hit hard but I am prepared for him,” Fatih said.
Fatih has been training with some Dagestani/Chechen fighters for this fight. Praising the efforts of his coaches, training partners and manager the fighter said that all this would not be possible without Arif Aktas, my teammates Arbi Mezhidov, Ibo Aslan, Sado Ucar, Aleksander Rakic and my manager Muhammad Rizvan Ali who are taking care of us as athletes and he won’t disappoint the team.
