After the draw for Jungle Fight 85, in January this year, Amanda lemos and Mayra Cantuária promoted a high-level rematch. During the first round, challenger Mayra managed to gain an advantage in the dispute by exploiting her jiu-jitsu well. However, right at the beginning of the second round, just when Mayra was looking for a ground fight, Amanda managed to land a knee that decreed the maintenance of the women's bantamweight belt in Pará.

The fight to unify the lightweight title had a very balanced first round, with Rander Junio trying to take his opponent to the ground. Stocky, on the contrary, did everything he could to stay standing and present his specialty: boxing. Eric Parrudo's strategy proved to be the best choice and the Champion Team athlete dominated the three rounds, taking the linear belt via unanimous referee decision.

The fight for the welterweight belt began with Jorginho Filho looking for more strikes against his opponent. The RVT athlete Pedro Rizzo LB Team managed some good low kicks, while Handesson Boy Doido tried to move and position himself in the center of the Arena. The expected confrontation soon showed why it had everything to be one of the best of the night. After an unappealable cross from Handesson, Jorginho became a passenger in agony and just waited for referee Flávio Almendra to interrupt the dispute, retaining the title with Boy Doido, who remains undefeated with nine victories and sent a message to the president of the UFC in Brazil. “I want to thank God and offer it to my wife who is pregnant. I also want to send a message to Giovani Decker: I’m ready”
