BRAVE Combat Federation returns to Slovenia for the fifth time on June 7 with BRAVE CF 96, and one of the night’s most anticipated matchups features Slovenian hometown favorite David Forster taking on Estonia’s rising star Kristjan Tõniste in a Super Lightweight bout.

Forster, a regular on BRAVE CF’s Slovenian events, will be fighting on home soil for the third time. After opening his BRAVE CF campaign with a win at BRAVE CF 70, he suffered back-to-back losses at BRAVE CF 79 and BRAVE CF 81. He now seeks redemption in front of the home crowd, aiming to reignite his momentum in the division.

Tõniste impressed in his promotional debut at BRAVE CF 81, where he earned a dominant unanimous decision win over local prospect Domen Drnovsek. The Estonian fighter displayed clean striking, relentless pressure, and poise throughout the bout, quickly marking himself as one to watch.

The stakes are high for both athletes—a chance for Forster to bounce back and a chance for Tõniste to climb closer to contender status. With both fighters carrying strong motivations, the Super Lightweight clash is expected to be one of the most explosive bouts of the evening.
