Bantamweight champion Stephen Loman scored the biggest victory of his career when he retained his belt against Brazilian Felipe Efrain at last month's Brave 18. The triumph made Loman the first champion in Brave history to defend his crown twice in a row. One of the Philippines' top MMA fighters, “The Sniper” had his work recognized in a parade in his hometown, Baguio City, last Sunday (2).

Along with Team Lakay teammates, Loman was honored by the people of Baguio City in an open car parade, and also received a special decoration from the local government.
“It was a very successful event and I am very happy to have received this award from the city government. The champions on our team were all together and we were able to share a very inspiring message for our countrymen. It was incredible to meet new people, feel the support they always give us and be able to take photos and make great memories”, said the champion.
After his latest win, Loman extended his undefeated streak to six fights. At Brave, there are now four consecutive victories, 12 in total in his professional career, against only two defeats.
Recently, the management of the Brave Combat Federation announced the trip of the largest MMA organization in the Middle East to the Philippines in 2019, and Loman can make his third belt defense at home.
