French knockout artist Alex “Da Killa King” Lohoré will challenge Brazil’s Luiz “Cado” Cado for the BRAVE CF Super Welterweight World Championship, the promotion confirmed Tuesday.

The title fight was announced following Lohoré’s dramatic third-round TKO victory over Poland’s Mansur Abdurzakov at BRAVE CF 94 in Geneva. With just 20 seconds left in the fight, Lohoré (23-8) secured a flurry of strikes that forced the referee to wave off the contest, earning the veteran his first title shot in BRAVE Combat Federation.

Lohoré, a longtime fixture on the European MMA circuit, has gained recognition for his explosive striking, aggressive approach, and fan-friendly style. The Frenchman now eyes championship gold in what may be the most important bout of his career.

Cado (15-4), the reigning Super Welterweight champion, has established himself as a dominant force in the division. The Brazilian combines sharp stand-up techniques with elite-level Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, holding notable wins across the BRAVE CF roster. He will aim to defend his title and extend his championship run against Lohoré’s power and momentum.

“This is the fight fans deserve,” said BRAVE CF President Mohammed Shahid. “Lohoré has earned this shot, and Cado is a true champion. It’s a clash of elite finishers and a world title bout that fits perfectly with the BRAVE CF legacy.”

The matchup will serve as a key fixture in BRAVE CF’s continued global expansion, with the Super Welterweight crown on the line and high stakes for both athletes.
