Kamil Magomedov made a resounding statement on his journey back to Lightweight division supremacy by securing a submission victory over Josh Togo in the main event of BRAVE CF 76 last Saturday in Indonesia. The impressive win has fueled Magomedov's hunger for more challenges, with the ambitious fighter signalling his readiness to step in on short notice for a potential world title fight.

In a bold move to expedite his ascent to the top, Magomedov, who nearly stunned the world in a fierce battle against champion Abdisalam Kubanychbek at BRAVE CF 69, expressed his willingness to step in if Kubanychbek's first title defense against Lucas Martins at BRAVE CF 77 on December 5 faces any unforeseen complications.

When asked about the Kubanychbek vs. Martins matchup, Magomedov stated, "(Abdisalam Kubanychbek vs. Lucas Martins) is a good fight! I hope it happens, but if suddenly someone flies off, I can fix it." Magomedov ensured his message reached the top by tagging BRAVE CF president Mohammed Shahid.

Known for his involvement in thrilling fights, win or lose, Magomedov's profile has continued to rise, especially after pushing Kubanychbek to the limit in their previous encounter. In the event of a rematch, Magomedov aims to go a step further and clinch the elusive Lightweight championship that narrowly slipped from his grasp in their initial showdown.

As of now, Abdisalam Kubanychbek vs. Lucas Martins remains intact and is set to headline BRAVE CF 77 on December 5, kicking off the much-anticipated BRAVE International Combat Week featuring three major events.
