Stephen Loman And Drex Zamboanga Ready To Ignite Filipino Pride In BRAVE CF

The Philippines will soon be prominently represented in BRAVE Combat Federation, with Stephen “The Sniper” Loman and Drex “The T-Rex” Zamboanga both part of the promotion’s roster.
Both superstars were among BRAVE CF’s biggest signings in 2025, and now they hope to share the spotlight on the same fight card, giving Filipino fans a moment to cheer for their homegrown stars side by side.
"We were together under a different promotion before, but I never got the chance to fight on the same card with Drex. Now that we are both here, I hope we can showcase Philippine pride together," Loman said.
Zamboanga added, "It would be even better if we compete on the same card. I know many Filipinos will be tuning in, and it will be a moment to celebrate our country together."
The two seasoned mixed martial artists are expected to compete in the second quarter of 2026, sparking anticipation for a strong Filipino presence on the global stage.
Loman’s history with BRAVE CF is storied. He debuted on the organization’s very first card in September 2016 and went on to achieve a flawless 6-0 record.
His crowning moment came in November 2017 when he claimed the inaugural BRAVE CF Bantamweight World Championship with a first-round technical knockout of Gurdarshan “Saint Lion” Mangat.
Over 1,179 days, “The Sniper” defended the crown four times, including a fourth-round stoppage of former featherweight king Elias “Smile” Boudegzdame at the Mall of Asia Arena in March 2019.
After four years away, Loman returned to the world’s fastest-growing and most global MMA organization at the end of 2025.
"I am delighted to write a new chapter in my career with BRAVE CF," he stated. "This marks the return of full Filipino representation in the promotion, and I could not be more excited."
BRAVE CF has long served as a stage for Filipino talents such as Jeremy “The Juggernaut” Pacatiw, Rolando Gabriel “The Incredible” Dy, Jenel “The Demolition Man” Lausa, Jomar “Nasty” Pa-ac, and Harold “The Artist” Banario.
Zamboanga’s signing in February 2025 reaffirmed the promotion’s commitment to Filipino fighters.

Zamboanga, considered one of the country’s top MMA athletes, carries a 14-6 record with 11 finishes.
“The T-Rex” first rose to prominence as the URCC bantamweight champion and later scored notable victories over Detchadin Sorsirisuphathin, Rahul Raju, and Adonis Sevilleno on the international stage.
"I see BRAVE CF as a place where Filipinos can get exposure, thrive, and take their careers to the next level," Zamboanga expressed. "Stephen and I are ready to show that the Philippines belongs on the international stage of mixed martial arts."
