Edson Draggo vs. Ednaldo Lula

Michele Verginelli vs. Bruno Carioca
In the international fight of the night, Bruno Carioca had the full support of the Bahian fans present at Fiesta. Imposing his takedown game, Carioca managed to dominate the first two rounds on the ground. In the third round, the Italian from the city of Rome was better at striking and managed to land good blows that shook the Brazilian. But it wasn't enough and Carioca won in a unanimous decision by the judges.
Luciano Azevedo vs. Jean Silva
In the co-main event of the night, a fight awaited by everyone and that could have happened years ago in England. Both coming from defeat, they sought open combat, and the fight was quite busy on the ground. Azevedo tried a first armbar without success, until he managed a good takedown, falling from past guard. After mounting, Azevedo managed a beautiful triangle armbar at 3:30 of R1 and ended the duel.
Fabricio Monteiro vs. Edilberto Crocotá
In the fight valid for the WFE welterweight belt, the aspiring champions started at full steam with sharp striking. Crocotá lands better blows, but Fabricio gets the takedown and mount. Landing blunt blows from the position, Fabricio left Crocotá dazed and bleeding a lot.
When trying to get out of mount, Edilberto ended up falling in a tight triangle, but he was a warrior and didn't give up.
In the second round the story reversed. Knowing his disadvantage, Crocotá went head on, and with superior boxing landed a good sequence of blows that forced referee Carlão Barreto to interrupt.
