Background
The event will be headlined by a fight between Luan Santiago and Benoit Saint-Denis in a super lightweight bout.
The co-main event feature a rematch between Jose Torres and Sean Santella. The fight is part of the BRAVE Flyweight Tournament, with their first fight ending in a draw. The week of the event, Santella had to pull out due to injury and was replaced by SBG Ireland’s Blaine O’Driscoll. While the fight will be contested at a Catchweight of 61kgs, due to the short-notice nature of the match-up, the bout between Torres and O’Driscoll will indeed serve as a quarter-final fight for the most Flyweight tournament.
Two IMMAF flyweight standouts, Muhammad Mokaev and Abdul Hussein, are scheduled to fight at the event.
