Brave 19 results: Mark Hulme and Frans Mlambo victorious at home

Brave Combat Federation hosted the promotion’s first edition in South Africa at the Sun City Resort, in Sun City, and local fighters were the highlight of the show. In the main event, prospect Mark Hulme got the biggest victory of his professional career as he won a unanimous decision over seasoned veteran Adam Townsend. Both men were making their promotional debuts, and their fight was one of the most back-and-forth of the action-packed event.

In the co-main event, Frans Mlambo faced Dansheel Moodley in a bout that marked the dominant return of the gold medalist from 2015 IMMAF World Championship. SBG Ireland’s Mlambo submitted Moodley in the first round to make a memorable return to his nation of origin. Moodley stepped in as a last minute replacement for Arnold Quero who had to withdraw from the event due to illness during his weight cut.

Meanwhile, David Bear faced Pawel Kiełek in an explosive bout which showcased intense striking skills by the fighter from France. Bear softened his opponent with vicious strikes which significantly slowed Kiełek down. The OBYFight representative put pressure on Kiełek, who eventually opened his guard letting Bear comfortably land combinations. Finally, a powerful right stopped Kiełek while Bear mauled his opponent forcing the referee to stop the bout.

Carl “Bomber” Booth returned to Brave Combat Federation after a 13-month absence to compete at Brave 19 against dangerous Dino Bagattin. The striker from England didn’t hold back as he set the pace for the bout aggressively, overwhelmed Bagattin with precise striking and good takedown defense, earning his first victory in nearly two years and putting himself back on the chase for Brave gold.

Gold Medalist at the 2017 IMMAF World Championships, Abdul Hussein made a home for himself in the flyweight division as he went the distance against Sylvester Chipfumbu, earning yet another professional win and positioning himself near the top of the division.
