BRAVE Combat Federation returns to Pakistan for the second time to host the biggest MMA event in South Asia

BRAVE Combat Federation is set to host the biggest MMA event in South Asia today with BRAVE CF 85 in Pakistan. The event will be headlined by a Featherweight title eliminator between Omar Solomanov and Rauan Bekbolat and has already gained international attention, especially due to the India vs. Pakistan rivalry.

The fight card features two India vs. Pakistan matchups, happening in Pakistan for the first-time ever. In the co-main event, India’s Srikant Sekhar will face Pakistan’s Rizwan Ali, while Indian MMA veteran Bharat Khandare makes his return after a seven-year hiatus to take on Pakistani legend Zia Mashwani.

Additionally, African MMA star Eliezer Kubanza aims for his third consecutive first-round knockout as he battles former Kyrgyz armed forces member Salamat Orozakunov. The card also showcases top Pakistani talents such as Abbas Khan, Ismail Khan, and Aqib Awan, alongside rising global stars like Bagylan Zahakansha, Murad Guseinov, and Mojtaba Nasiri, making it a must-watch event for MMA fans worldwide.

BRAVE CF 85 will be held as part of BRAVE International Combat Week and is the fifth BRAVE Combat Federation event of the year, following previous events in Slovenia, Mauritius, the Netherlands, and China.
