Chute Boxe bantamweight Diego Lima will try to recover from his first defeat in the event by facing Frenchman Arnold Quero, who is coming off a victory over Caio Gregório in Belo Horizonte, in his debut for the organization.
The co-main fight of Brave 14 pits American Sidney Wheeler and Franco-Russian Abdoul Abdouraguimov, in a welterweight duel, while Velimurad Alkhasov, former ACB champion, faces Sean Santella, teammate of Frankie Edgar, Brave ambassador and featherweight star.
On the preliminary card, the highlight was the debut of Keith Lee, younger brother of Kevin Lee – the American takes Jeremy Pacatiw, who will become the athlete with the most fights for Brave (six). Former lightweight title challenger and former TUF Latin America member, Alejandro “Pato” Martínez squares off with Dutch newcomer Djamil Chan.
