All the pre-fight rituals are completed ahead of BRAVE CF 89, setting the stage for the historic event on Saturday, October 19, at Pabellon Santiago Martin in Tenerife, Spain.
Friday's weigh-ins saw all fighters making weight on their first attempt, followed by evening staredowns that set the tone for BRAVE CF's second event in Spain.
Ahead of the first-ever MMA world title fight on Spanish soil, Super Welterweight Champion Kamal Magomedov and challenger Luiz Cado faced off in a tense staredown, hinting at the intensity expected in the main event. Both fighters are undefeated in BRAVE Combat Federation, making this a high-stakes title clash.
The Irish fans created a lively atmosphere during the face-offs, showing strong support for Richie Smullen and Gerard Burns. Smullen, who will face Spanish MMA veteran Jose Sanchez in the co-main event, had the Irish crowd behind him, undeterred by the local Spanish support for Sanchez. The face-off between Burns and Santiago Paiva was one of the day's most intense moments, energized by the Irish presence.
