The traditional ceremonial weigh-ins for Brave 22: Storm of Warriors is set to take place on March 14th, on the eve of the historical fight night. The famous Resorts World Manila will host the event, which gives fans a last glimpse of their heroes before the groundbreaking Brave 22, which will happen at the iconic Mall of Asia Arena, this Friday (15).
The ceremonial weigh-ins are also important to fighters, who will face off with their opponents one final time before their bouts, with many athletes choosing to mock or taunt their counterparts in a bid to get an edge come fight night. The event will be hosted by Brave CF official announcer, “The Roaring Lion” Carlos Kremer, and is expected to be attended by local influencers and officials as well as Brave CF’s president Mohammed Shahid.
Set for fight night is the Bantamweight title fight between defending champion Stephen Loman and challenger Elias Boudegzdame. The duo will face off for the last time before fight night, as will Cian Cowley and John Brewin, who face each other in the co-main event, and other 14 warriors, including nine Filipino heroes. They will all confirm their official weights in front of the fans and the press before the final face-off.
The event will take place at The Plaza, located on the second floor of the Newport Mall, inside the Resorts World Manila, Brave 22’s official entertainment partner and known worldwide for their luxurious casinos, hotels, and restaurants.
