This week’s Brave Combat Federation card
will soldier on without one of its most anticipated matchups.
On Sunday morning, the Bahraini promotion announced that Ultimate Fighting Championship alum Lucas
Martins (20-5), who was scheduled to meet Luan
Santiago Carvalho (15-4) in the co-main event of Brave CF 41, has been forced to
withdraw after suffering an undisclosed injury. As a consequence,
the Denis
Tiuliulin vs. Ikram
Aliskerov middleweight battle has been promoted to the co-main
event spot.
M-1 Global veteran Tiuliulin (8-4, 1 NC) is making his
Brave debut on the strength of a three-bout winning streak, all
three by TKO. Only one of his career wins has been by decision.
Aliskerov (9-1) has amassed a record of 6-1 under the Brave FC
banner. He made his promotional debut back in at Brave CF 6 in
April 2007, tapping out Rufat
Asadov with a guillotine choke in the first round.
Brave CF 41 will take place in the Kingdom of Bahrain on Sept. 17.
The main event features middleweight champion Daniel
Souza Pereira defending his title against Mohammad
Fakhreddine. The card will also feature Cian Cowley
taking on Ahmed Amir
and Felipe
Silva meeting Sam
Patterson.
