Tajikistan’s Khurshed Nazarov is set to make his BRAVE Combat Federation debut at BRAVE CF 82 on May 11 in Mauritius when he takes on Zimbabwe’s Nicholas Hwende in the co-main event.
This fight will have major implications on the Bantamweight Division, as Nazarov has an undefeated track record and Hwende is just a few steps away from a title shot. Khurshed’s debut is not only significant for the Bantamweight division but also demonstrates the commitment BRAVE CF has towards Central Asia.
BRAVE CF continues to provide a global platform for MMA competitors from the region. Nazarov was the latest outstanding talent to benefit. This move reflects BRAVE CF’s longstanding vision for Central Asia, which began with the promotion’s early ventures into the region, starting with BRAVE CF 6 held in Kazakhstan shortly after its inception. Later, the organization expanded its presence by holding events in Kyrgyzstan as well as Uzbekistan. This solidified its role in the region as a catalyst of MMA.
BRAVE CF is not only hosting MMA events in Central Asia but also playing a vital role in the growth of MMA superstars from the region. Central Asian athletes have a long list. Here are some of the best examples.
