In a recent facebook post, Mohammad Sayyah’s management announced the signing of Sayyah for 4 fights with Desert Force mentioning that he will be facing Mohammad Fakhreddine at the next Desert Force in Beirut.
Fight Star’s facebook post (translated from French)
As you may already know, Mohamed Sayah is now tied for a 4 fight contract with Desert Force. Fight Star Management is very proud of this deal, and to all the doubters out there: we are there to last.
Desert Force has regained confidence in Mohamed following his last fight defeat. Despite the loss and despite taking the fight on short noticr, Sayah showed clear dominance throughout the fight.
Mohamed is an athlete with enormous potential, framed by a strong team and an experienced coach and M-1 veteran Chaban Ka.
We meet on August 17 in Beirut where Mohamed will fave local star Mohammad Fakhreddine (5-1-0).
The fight is not yet official, but Sayah, who was a last minute replacement for Tarek Suleiman in the last event could very well face Fakhreddine in Desert Force Lebanon. Sayah showed superior ground skills shutting down Jarrah al Selawi in the first round before getting KO’ed half way through the second. This could very well be a very tough match up for Fakhreddine.

Despite his loss. Sayyah dominated Silawi. I respected Sayyah for accepting the fight on such a short notice. Silawi needs to work harder and fight against 2 or 3 more tough opponents in order to prove himself worthy of a title shot. I would love to see Rami Hamed vs Tarek Suleiman or Ghorabi vs Suleiman.
