BRAVE Combat Federation, the most global MMA promotion in the world, has just revealed the full fight card for its upcoming event BRAVE CF 73, that will be held in Bogota, Colombia, on August 12, as part of the 2023 Pan American Combat Week. The fight night will be headlined by the bantamweight world title bout between Jose “Shorty” Torres and Nkosi “The Future” Ndebele.
The co-main event of the evening will see the flyweights taking centre stage, as Brazil’s Flávio de Queiroz faces the biggest challenge of his career in the seasoned veteran Zach “Fun Size” Makovsky. Another Brazilian featured in the event is super welterweight rising star Luiz Cado, who is set to face promotional newcomer Vernon Ramos, from Panama.
For the fans in Bogota, Colombia, however, one of the biggest attractions in the program is, without a doubt, the return of hometown hero Eduardo “El Burro” Mora. After a disappointing defeat against Izzeddine Al Derbani on his last appearance in the BRAVE CF arena, Mora is looking to bounce back as he takes on Keron Bourne, a legend of combat sports in Trinidad and Tobago.
The ladies will have the honor to open up the main card in an 100% South American clash. Venezuela’s Yasmeli Araque is on the hunt of her first international MMA win but, in order to get that, she will have to go through Ecuador’s Eidy Macías, who’s quickly rising through the ranks in the continent and sees the BRAVE CF debut as her chance to prove her worth globally.
The undercard is going to feature the best Colombian MMA fighters, competing under the LFC banner, taking on rivals from all Latin America. In total, there will be four prelims, with the highlight being the clash of two former BRAVE CF fighters: Maurício Otalora and Calos Belloso.
