STEPHEN LOMAN RETURNS TO ACTION AGAINST LASHA ABRAMISHVILI AT BRAVE CF 108 IN CROATIA

July 9, 2026 – Pula, Croatia: BRAVE Combat Federation™ (BRAVE CF), the world’s fastest-growing and most global mixed martial arts organization, will showcase a clash with major championship ramifications when former BRAVE CF Bantamweight World Champion Stephen “The Sniper” Loman returns to face No. 2-ranked contender Lasha Abramishvili at BRAVE CF 108 on Saturday, September 5, at the legendary Pula Arena in Croatia.

Stephen Loman, Former BRAVE CF Bantamweight World Champion, stated:

“I have waited a long time for this moment, and I am truly grateful that my return is finally happening in BRAVE CF. This organization gave me the opportunity to showcase my talent on a global stage and helped shape my career. Coming back here means a lot to me. I am excited to compete again, and this fight in Croatia is the first step toward winning the BRAVE CF Bantamweight World Title once more.”

Lasha Abramishvili, No. 2-Ranked Bantamweight Contender, stated:

“It is a huge honor to compete against a fighter who helped build this division. Stephen Loman achieved great things as World Champion, and that makes this challenge even more exciting. I know that if I can convincingly defeat him, I will have proven that I deserve to fight for the BRAVE CF Bantamweight World Title next.”

Few competitors have left a greater mark on BRAVE CF than Loman. Since becoming part of the promotion during its inaugural event in September 2016, the Filipino superstar has authored a flawless 6-0 run under the organization’s banner while building an overall professional record of 17-3.

Moreover, his résumé includes six knockout victories and two submission finishes, showcasing the well-rounded skill set that established him among the elite.

Loman’s legendary reign began in emphatic fashion at BRAVE CF 9: THE KINGDOM OF CHAMPIONS in November 2017 when he stopped Gurdarshan “Saint Lion” Mangat in the opening round to become the first-ever BRAVE CF Bantamweight World Champion.

“The Sniper” would spend the next 1,179 days atop the division, successfully defending the World Title four times. Among the highlights of that memorable stretch was a thrilling fourth-round knockout of former BRAVE CF Featherweight World Champion Elias “Smile” Boudegzdame before an electric Filipino crowd at the Mall of Asia Arena in March 2019.

After years away from competition, the Lions Nation MMA representative now returns with renewed motivation and one clear objective. The BRAVE CF Bantamweight World Title currently belongs to Borislav “Zombee” Nikolić, and Loman intends to begin his climb back to the throne in Croatia.

Abramishvili, however, has no intention of allowing the former titleholder to reclaim the spotlight.

The Georgian contender has quietly assembled one of the fiercest winning streaks in the bantamweight division at the moment. Sporting a 12-2-1 slate, Abramishvili remains unbeaten through four appearances in BRAVE CF, with three of those victories ending before the final bell.

Abramishvili’s latest performance came at BRAVE CF 106 this past June, where he showcased his toughness and composure by grinding out a unanimous decision over Brice “Lion Kid” Picaud in a demanding three-round contest.

Now ranked No. 2 in the division, Abramishvili sees Loman as the final obstacle separating him from a championship opportunity against Nikolić.

With one athlete determined to recapture gold that once defined his legacy and another eager to seize the biggest opportunity of his career, BRAVE CF 108 is set to deliver a pivotal bantamweight showdown.
