Since the days of the mighty Persian empire that had the legendary elite team of worriers called Immortals and one of the most ancient martial arts Furusiyya, many powerful and exciting fighting styles have their roots in the Middle East. From Turkish Kuntaw and Egyptian stick fighting style Tahtib, to the extremely demanding Israeli hand-to-hand combat style Krav Maga and Kapap, to the Nearu from the lands of Iran . Although mixed martial arts are rapidly rising in popularity across Middle Eastern countries, fighters from these countries have had limited opportunity to participate in large-scale international tournaments. The untapped pool of mighty competitors eager for a shot at the crown and their moment in the spotlight to make their country proud, will make the LFS Middle Eastern Championship one of the most electrifying and epic battles ever seen. Countries participating include the United Arab Emirates, Israel, Lebanon, Turkey, Pakistan and Morocco… just to mention a few. The athletes will bring a diversity of expertise in various fighting disciplines to the Hexagon, making each fight a unique challenge that will keep the fighters and their fans on the edge of their seats. This is the first of its kind combat event that will see all middle-eastern countries come together in the sporting event driven by honour and represented by their National Champions.
