The Brave Combat Federation released all the fights that will take place in its 13th event for the organization. The edition called Europe Evolution will take place on June 9th, in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and will feature Brazilian Rodrigo Cavalheiro. The veteran welterweight will welcome Karl Amoussou, who will have his first fight in the promotion.

Coming off a victory over Alessandro Gambulino at Brave 11, in Belo Horizonte, Cavalheiro has already declared that he intends to challenge the welterweight champion Carlston Harris if Amoussou wins. The Noguchi Team fighter would face Harris at Brave 8, but the day before the Guyanese was promoted to the title fight, beating Carl Booth and winning the belt.

PUBLICITY:

In the main fight of Brave 13, bantamweight champion Stephen Loman defends his belt against Frans Mlambo, the star's teammate Conor McGregor at SBG Ireland. The two have faced each other before, with “The Sniper” Loman taking the unanimous decision victory on that occasion.

Northern Irishman Norman Parke, a former UFC fighter, is another athlete who will make his debut at the event, like Amoussou. The lightweight will face Englishman Myles Price in a 73 kg catchweight contest. The duel is also a rematch, as Parke got the better of the first duel between the two.

PUBLICITY:

Northern Ireland will become the ninth country to host a Brave event, following Bahrain, Brazil, United Arab Emirates, India, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Jordan and Indonesia.
