Due to an unfortunate injury to Kamal Magomedov, the main event of BRAVE CF 71 has undergone a change. Marcin Bandel's Super Welterweight world title defense has been postponed as a result. However, fans can still anticipate an enthralling matchup as Omar Solomanov and Ilyar Askhanov, the top Featherweight contenders, step up to headline the event.

In an exciting co-main event at BRAVE CF 71, Velimurad Alkhasov, a prominent Flyweight contender, will move up to the Bantamweight division to face undefeated fighter Nicholas Hwende from Zimbabwe. Hwende, who holds an African title, will make his international debut in Bahrain, adding more intrigue to this significant clash.

Watch out for Olympic wrestler Mahmoud Sebie, aiming to maintain his flawless record of 3-0 under the BRAVE Combat Federation banner when he faces undefeated Tunisian fighter Oussama Zeidi.

BRAVE CF 71 will also witness the highly anticipated promotional debuts of two exceptional talents in the world of mixed martial arts.
