Late Change to BRAVE CF 74: Mathieu Rakotondrazanany Steps Up for Clash

07 September 2023

The highly anticipated BRAVE CF 74 event in Nantes, France, was originally poised to showcase the battle of unbeaten fighters, Levy Carriel and Eliezer Kubanza. Regrettably, Kubanza has been compelled to withdraw from the event, leaving an opening on the main card that could potentially be a life-changing opportunity for another fighter.

In a swift response to the call, Mathieu Rakotondrazanany has stepped up to the challenge, ensuring that fans will witness an all-French showdown on September 7th, albeit at a Catchweight of 81kg. While Rakotondrazanany may not be a household name within the BRAVE family, he has already left his mark within the realm of Hexagone MMA, the co-promoter of the upcoming event.

Rakotondrazanany made his Hexagone MMA debut just a few weeks ago, where he secured a victory over Faudel Bentayeb via unanimous decision. This win marked his third career victory since transitioning to the professional ranks, underscoring his potential as a rising star.

The challenge ahead of Rakotondrazanany is undoubtedly formidable. Levy Carriel, his opponent, is a captivating prospect in his own right, entering the contest with confidence and aspirations of making a significant impact on the BRAVE CF stage.

The unpredictable nature of a last-minute card change cannot be underestimated, as both fighters prepare to seize the moment and deliver an unforgettable clash in Nantes.

BRAVE CF 74 is set to unfold at the H Arena in Nantes, France, in partnership with leading organization Hexagone MMA. This event marks a historic milestone, elevating France to the status of the 29th nation to host a BRAVE CF event—a remarkable achievement in the world of mixed martial arts, unrivaled by any other promotion.
