Fans all over the Middle East were anxious to know who will take Hashem Arkhagha‘s spot to face Mohammed Fakhreddine for the Desert Force Interim title! It has been official released that undefeated Thabet Agha will join the Desert Force roster and move up to Middleweight for a chance to face Arkhagha for the Desert Force shield.
Fakhreddine to ArabsMMA:
I recently found out that my fight against Thabet Agha will be for the Interim Title. This means, the winner in this fight will face Arkhagha to Unify the Desert Force Middleweight Title belt.This doesn’t really bother me, at least i will get the chance to meet Arkhagha in the cage after all. In my opinion, Thabet is a very tough opponent and a true champion. Everyone saw his physical and mental toughness when he took part of “Al Batal” reality show. He managed to beat some tough fighters like George Eid whom i recently visited at Tristar gym for a sparring session. I know he;s a very good fighter so its gonna be a pleasure fighting him! I can promise every body that they will see War in Amman, Jordan on the 27th!.
